–noun
AKA a cellular telephone.
A mobile telephone system using low-powered radio transmitters, with each transmitter covering a distinct geographical area (cell), and computer equipment to switch a call from one area to another.
The cellular system uses multiple base stations to cover a geographic area. As the mobile phone user travels from cell to cell, the call is automatically "handed off" to the next station.
Phone: An instrument that converts voice and other sound signals into a form that can be transmitted to other locations and that receives and reconverts waves into sound signals.
