Under Do Cell Phone Boosters Work?
A common situation is a home or office with few or no signal bars and frequently dropped calls. Whether or not a repeater can help in this situation depends on the cause of the problem – which you the customer can usually determine quite easily.
Poor cell phone reception is an ubiquitous problem across the United States, and the causes of bad signal fall under two categories: localized poor coverage due to building materials or destructive interference, and geographical distance from or obstacles between your phone and the nearest cell tower.
Let’s deal with the latter first. Say you live in the middle of a desert, miles from a town or major road. If you are physically too far away from the nearest cell tower, and have to drive a couple of miles to get a signal, a repeater is unlikely to be able to help you, because it cannot create a signal where one does not exist already. Similarly, if you live on the side of a mountain, and the cell tower is on the other side of that mountain, a repeater is not likely to able to pick up a strong enough signal through that obstacle to improve your coverage.
So geographical reception barriers are often insurmountable. Fortunately, they are relatively rare. The cause of your bad cell signal is far more likely to be due to the construction materials used in your home or office, or destructive interference from the buildings around you. Cellular signals have a hard time passing through metal and concrete within the walls of your home. That’s why you might gain two or three bars of signal by hanging out of an upstairs window. Obviously, you can’t make all your cell phone calls like that (!), but you can set up a cell repeater there, magnifying the good signal to an internal antennae within the walls of your house and bypassing the ‘blocking’ effect of the building walls. Many buildings also use a wire mesh in their construction called a Faraday cage. This mesh blocks external static electricity fields, meaning that cell phone signals cannot get through.
Destructive interference runs along similar lines and is a particular problem in built-up areas. If you can’t get a signal in your Manhattan apartment, it’s obviously not because Cingular/Sprint/Verizon etc coverage is poor there. In cities, cell signals will be reflected from walls and other barriers and many separate signals will be found traveling in different directions. These different signals will interact with each other and some of these can be diminished in strength, which results in weaker cell signal for you. Luckily in these cases you will probably be able to get a reasonable signal nearby, and so again, a cellular repeater is an excellent solution.
A good rule of thumb is the following: if you can get a signal outside your home or office, but not inside, the problem is likely to be one of localized bad coverage which can be improved by a cellular repeater.

Under Do Cell Phone Boosters Work?
Below is what the stick-on cell phone antenna booster manufacturers claim they will do, do they really work? Make sure you read the comments to find out the truth!
“Tired of cell phone static interrupting important conversations? Frustrated with broken connections at the most inconvenient times? The ultra-thin Cell Phone Antenna Booster substantially enhances the signal intensity and increases cell phone reception in elevators, cars, trains, remote areas…any place you can think of. Simply attach the Cell Phone Antenna Booster to the back of your phone or place it under your internal battery for better reception…instantly! The Cell Phone Antenna Booster works with any mobile phone.
How does the Antenna Booster work?
The cell phone signal booster is a passive device designed to capture stray radiation within the phone and re-radiate the signal to improve the cell phone’s signal performance. The internal antenna reception booster sticker comes with easy instructions, just slip it underneath the phone’s battery, and enjoy clear, enhanced, static-free reception!”
