Thousands and thousands of people in the United States and around the world are familiar with mobileular phones. With gadgets such as mobileular phones, you can stay connected with your friends and family and talk with anyone anywhere on the planet. And what's more, you can do all these from just about anywhere!

The mobileular phones in the market these days have an incredible plethora of functions and gizmos. Every month or so, new functions are constantly being added to make your mobile phones even more convenient to use. Truth be told, typical mobileular phones nowadays can do just about anything. Depending on the mobile phone model, here are some of the things you can do:

* Use the built-in calculator for simple math
* Send or receive email
* Get information, such as news, entertainment, stock quotes from the Internet
* Play simple games
* Integrate other devices such as PDAs, MP3 players, and GPS receivers

All right, so now that we have enumerated some of the stuffs that mobileular phones can do. But have you ever wondered how mobileular phones work? What makes mobileular phones different from regular phones?

To start with the basics, mobileular phones are basically radio devices. Well, they are extremely sophisticated radio devices but radio nonetheless. The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876 and wireless communication came to be with the invention of the first radio by Nikolia Tesla in the 1880s. It was perhaps only natural that these two great technologies would be used together to create the mobile phone.

Before the age of mobileular phones, people who needed the portability of mobile-communications devices installed radio telephones in their cards. This meant that the telephone would have to have a big transmitter that's powerful enough to transmit 40 to 50 miles. Now, for the mobile person where convenience is a must, that's not very appealing.

The genius of mobileular phones is the division of a city into small mobiles. This allows extensive frequency reuse across a city so that millions of people can use mobileular phones simultaneously. Typical mobile phones in the United States can receive about 800 frequencies to use across the city. This is indeed a big step from the radio-telephone system where only about 25 channels are afforded per city. What the mobile phone carrier does is to chop up the city into hundreds of mobiles, each measuring about 10 square miles. Because mobileular phones and base stations use low-power transmitters, the same frequencies can be reused in non-adjacent mobiles. This allows more people to use mobileular phones without choking the frequency pathway.
