A mobile communication system is composed of a mobile station (hereinafter referred to as a cellular phone), a base station, a base station controller, and a mobile switching center, and the cellular phone is a digital cellular network (DCN) and a personal communication service (PCS). The mobile terminal is a mobile terminal, and the base station changes the signal format between the mobile phone and the base station controller to be suitable for the wireless link and the wired link. The base station controller is a function of each element of the base station and an access means between cell operators. It performs management functions such as operation management, service status management of hardware and software in the base station, resource allocation and configuration for call traffic, collection of information on base station operation, and sub-devices related to base station operation, monitoring and fixing. The mobile switching center then configures access points for user traffic between the base station controller management and the mobile communications network and the mobile switching center of the general telephone network or the same mobile communication system.

With the development of wireless communication technology, the use cost of mobile phone is increasing and the call quality is also improved to make high quality call even in a driving vehicle.

The basic configuration of a mobile phone is an antenna for transmitting and receiving wireless signals between a base station and a mobile phone, a speaker for allowing a user to listen to a voice signal, a microphone for receiving a user's voice, and a function button for pressing another phone's phone number or inputting data. Keypad unit, a display unit on which a dialed telephone number or a character indicating the function setting or status of the current mobile terminal is displayed, a flip to protect the keypad, and data for transmitting and receiving data Earphone connection unit for connecting the transceiver and the earphone.

In the call method of the mobile phone having such a configuration, when the number of the called party to be called is manipulated on the keypad of the mobile terminal, the called party number is displayed on the display unit, and when it is determined that the display state of the display unit is correct, the user calls. Pressing Send sends a call to the other party. When the call is connected with the other party, the call is made using the microphone and speaker which are voice input / output units configured in the mobile phone.

In general, a mobile phone is simply a bar-shaped stripe, a flip-type like a lid attached to a bar-shaped keypad portion, and a folder to separate and fold the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) portion and the keypad portion of the terminal. There is a brother.
