How Your Cell Phone Receives Calls

Traveling in areas where masts are not located renders your cell phone unreachable. Mast or cell-phone towers are the typically tall steel pole lattice structure that raises hundreds of feet into the air.

Old cell-phone towers usually had small buildings at the base, thanks to the new technology where modern cell-phone towers have equipments at the base of the tower.
Communication between cell phones is possible through the radio transmitters and receivers that connect with the antennae on the tower through a set of thick cables.
When someone makes a call, the ESN (Electronic Serial Number) and MIN (Mobile Identification Number) are transmitted to the network at the beginning of the call.
MIN/ESN is unique in every phone. This enables the network service provider to know who to bill when you make a call. When your phone transmits its MIN/ESN pair, it is possible for nefarious sorts to listen and capture the pair. Using security equipments it is possible to configure a different cell phone to contain your MIN/ESN pair, which could enables the nefarious individual to make free calls on your account.

It is worth to remember that receiving calls or making calls over the network is possible if you have a cell phone device. Once you loose it you can not make calls. Loosing a cell phone and failing to recover it is a big loss.

It’s possible to recover you cell phone by having a lost mobile tracking system installed in your cell phone. This software would relief the burden off your shoulder of having to worry about loosing your mobile phone.
