With A Signal Booster Austin Cellular Phone Users Can Always Enjoy A Strong Reception

By Sharon Hall


The advent of cellular technology has empowered millions of people that had to make do with inadequate or even non existent communication facilities. It has also changed the way that people work because it is no longer be necessary to be at the office in order to communicate with clients ans colleagues. One main problem has always been the fact that there are areas with no or very weak reception. Now, however, with a signal booster Austin cell phone owners can enjoy constant reliable reception.

There are two major factors that influence the reliability and strength of cellular reception. The first is the distance from the tower and the other is physical obstructions. Service providers establish their networks by means of towers that receives the signals and pass them on to the next tower. Those on the edge of the footprint of a tower may experience unreliable reception. Mountains, buildings and even trees can also cause reduced reception.

The answer to poor reception is to use an amplifier. These devices are designed to address the two main causes of poor reception. In the first instance, they amplify weak electronic signals before transmitting them again to a specified area and in the second instance they bypass any obstruction to make sure that a designated area enjoys strong and reliable reception.

These devices consist of three separate components. First there is an outside antenna that needs to be installed at a location where there is reception. This is normally as high up as possible. This antenna relays signals to an indoors amplifier with a cable. An indoors antenna then retransmits to the area where reception is necessary. The system works both ways. Signals from the phone is strengthened before being relayed to the tower.

Choosing a amplifying system should be undertaken with circumspect and several factors need to be considered. These devices will only amplify certain frequencies, so it is necessary to determine which networks and carriers the amplifier will need to support. This is important because this will determine the type of amplifier and antenna that will need to be purchased. If more than one carrier needs to be supported it will be necessary to install an omnidirectional antenna.

It is also important to think about the strength of the existing reception. Very weak reception will require much stronger amplifiers and of course their is a cost factor involved. The size and layout of the area that needs strong and reliable reception is also very important because this will determine type of indoor antenna that will be required. It will be more costly if the required reception area covers several floors of a building.

New developments in this field include special amplification devices for use in vehicles and boats that move from one reception area to the next. There are also devices for individual use. They consist of a cradle that provides amplification for a single mobile device. The only drawback is that the system only works if the device is in the cradle.

Cellular phones have certainly revolutionized communication. The technology is affordable and empowering. Problems with weak reception have now found a solution in the form of devices that amplifies even the weakest signals.
