What is a base station in telecommunications?

In telecommunications, a base station is a fixed transceiver that serves as the main communication point for one or more wireless mobile client devices. It not only connects wireless devices to each other but also links them to other networks or devices, often through dedicated high-bandwidth wired or fiber optic connections.

How do base stations work?

Base stations use antennas mounted on cell towers to send and receive radio signals to and from mobile devices within their coverage area. This communication enables users to make voice calls, send texts, and access data services, connecting them to the wider world. Network Management and Optimization
