With A Signal Booster Austin Cell Phone Users Will Always Be In Touch

By Sharon Hall


Since the introduction of cellular communications this industry has shown phenomenal growth. Cellular phones allow people previously of of touch to now communicate freely. They have freed people from the shackles of a desk because they can communicate wherever they are. The only problem is that reception is sometimes very unreliable, especially in rural area and where there are large obstructions such as mountains. However, with a signal booster Austin cellular phone users can enjoy reliable reception twenty four hours a day.

The strength and reliability of reception depend upon two main factors. The first is obstacles such as certain building materials that reflect or even block signals, buildings, mountains and other obstructions. The second is the distance that the user is from the transmitting tower. The further away from a tower the user is, the more likely it is that there will be dead spots and areas with poor 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.

Careful consideration of three main factors is necessary before purchasing an amplifying device. Firstly, it is necessary to decide which carriers need to be supported. The various carriers all operate on different frequencies and amplifying devices will only work with very specific frequencies. If more than one carrier needs to be supported a special outside antenna will be necessary but it is certainly possible to support multiple carriers.

The strength of the reception also need to be taken into consideration. The weaker the reception, the stronger the amplifier needs to be. Yet another factor is the area that needs better reception. The bigger the area, the stronger the required amplifier will need to be. The layout of the area is also important. If reception is required on only one floor, a simple dome antenna will be sufficient. However, if reception is required across several floors it will be necessary to install a panel antenna.

There are also systems for individual use. Specialized amplifying systems are available for use in vehicles and boats. With these systems the networks that need to be carried is the main consideration. Then there is a type of cradle that is designed to work with one specific device. These systems are the most affordable but will only work when the device is in the cradle.

Amplification devices have provided a new impetus for the cellular industry. People that were previously not using the technology due to poor and unreliable reception can now enjoy the benefits of this technology. One cannot help but wonder what the next innovation is going to be.
