The Mechanics of Tower Operations
Cell phone towers—often referred to as communication towers—contain a variety of equipment used to facilitate electronic communications. These structures are designed to receive and transmit voice, video, and other types of electronic communications via electromagnetic radio waves. This allows strong and reliable wireless communication across a broad area of land.
Each tower receives, translates, and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy from one mobile device to another. These can include:
- The tower itself. This is the supporting structure that holds all other components in place. There are a number of different tower types, each best suited for particular locations or purposes.
- Antennas. These devices pick up cellular signals in the area and send them to the other tower components.
- Receivers. When the tower picks up a signal, it is channeled to the receiver for processing.
- Control electronics. Processing equipment takes the signal from the receiver and uses a series of preprogrammed functions to decide where it goes next.
- Transmitters. Once the signal has been identified, transmitters direct it towards its goal destination. This happens via a cellphone switching station, which works in a similar way to wired telephone exchanges.
- Batteries, generators, and power packs. Additional power sources help boost tower strength, ensure continued operations in emergencies, and allow cell tower installation in remote areas where traditional power sources are scarce.
Other cell site materials, like tools and extra equipment, are often stored in secured cabinets within or near the structure. This makes it easier to perform maintenance and upgrades on the tower and the equipment it contains.
The structure of the tower itself also affects its ability to send and receive signals properly. There are several types of communication tower construction, including:
- Lattice towers are flexible, yet strong enough to bear heavy loads.
- Monopole towers consist of a single tube, usually made from steel or cement.
- Guyed towers are cost-effective structures that require a large amount of land for their foundations.
- Stealth towers blend in with their surroundings to preserve a location’s visual appeal.
By working with a tower installation company, businesses who want to expand their mobile capabilities can find the right tower construction and components to fit their needs.
