How to Get Rid of Poor Network or No Signal Issues

A recent survey found that some 72 % of people in India have dropped calls and that 32% have dropped calls at least a couple of times a week or longer. Like or not, dropped calls are still a major issue for many and although the networks tend to install towers and increase coverage, this is not a concern which will quickly go away. And what will be done?

In order to expand the wireless networks to areas experiencing weak coverage, including home areas , schools, commercial buildings and many more, FCC has officially approved the use of cell-phone signal booster after many years of inquiry into this issue. We should research the signal boosters in the cell phone more closely and provide advice on how to pick the right device to fix reception issues permanently.

Reasons of Poor Cell Phone Signal

There are two major contributive factors when it comes to weak mobile phone signal: distance from the nearest cell tower and interference-related obstacles.

1. Distance

Carriers provide mobile coverage through a network of cell towers located strategically. Ideally, your mobile device will automatically connect to the close tower whenever you are in this network, and when you move, you will continue to move to the nearest tower. Unfortunately, once you hit the limit of the coverage of your network, there will be no new towers and weakened signals will continue to appear on the mobile device the closest to the antenna.

2. Interference

Although cell signals travel through the air with limited interference, every object they find is messing with the tower and mobile device. Main signals, as well as building materials like metal siding, concrete and wire mesh may be caused by geographical elements such as hills, mountains and trees. However, the increasing use of effective materials, such as radiant barriers and window tinting, led to the degree of the reception issues of mobile phones in new homes. While one of these causes is necessary to trigger dropped calls and bad reception, the mixture of the two ensures just problems. We will then examine how a signal booster for cell phones is designed to address these two factors.

How to Fix Using Mobile Phone Signal Booster

Mobile signal booster for home and offices have been developed to counter all reasons affecting poor cell phone coverage (also known as mobile phone repeaters). They are meant to reinforce a low external signal and bypass any interference in a region that was originally absent.

The system operates in a position where the signal is typically on the roof, by mounting an external antenna. The signal is conveyed by a wire to a signal amplifier inside the building from the exterior antenna. After amplifying the signal, it is then transmitted to an inside antenna, and then to a reception-enhanced area. The system also works in reverse, amplifying and transmitting the signal from your telephone to the tower to ensure strong two-way communications.

How to Pick the Right Signal Booster

You need to know three pieces of information to select the correct cell phone signal booster for your situation: the carriers and networks that you need to support, the existing external signal strength of such carriers and the area covered by boosted signal.

Carriers & Networks to Support

Cellular phone signal boosters often amplify certain wavelengths of radio waves that are connected to other carriers and networks of certain carriers (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, etc.) (2 G, 3 G, or 4 G LTE). The first thing to learn was the carrier(s) to help and what networks on such carriers, as it determines the signal amplifiers to use and the type of external antenna to use.

Outside Signal Strength

Cellular phone signal boosters often amplify certain wavelengths of radio waves that are connected to other carriers and networks of certain carriers (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, etc.) (2 G, 3 G, or 4 G LTE). The first thing to learn was the carrier(s) to help and what networks on such carriers, as it determines the signal amplifiers to use and the type of external antenna to use.

Coverage

The last bit of knowledge to determine which sort of signal booster you need is the location of the boosted signal and the configuration of the location. How strong an amplifier is required determines the combination of external signal strength and the area covered.

The architecture of the protected area also defines what sort of antenna within the device is required. If all the coverage area is on one level, the safest option is to dispense the boosted signal by means of a dome antenna.

Although you would want to use a panel antenna, which is more directional and can be used to ensure the signal is transmitted over a specified area as coverage area is across several floors.

A first step in finding the best solution for you is to know the basic role of a cellular signal booster and what you have to worry about before you buy one. All conditions are different from local geography to building or house design, and you can contact a signal booster specialist on the device which is right for you.
