Phone Call Process
1. Dialing and Connection:
- When you dial a phone number, the information is sent to your local phone carrier.
- The carrier routes the call to the receiver's carrier using the telephone network.
- The receiver's carrier connects your call to their phone.
2. Signal Conversion:
- The audio signals from your microphone are converted into electrical signals.
- These signals are then modulated and transmitted as radio waves, microwaves, or fiber optic pulses.
3. Signal Transmission:
- The signals travel through various transmission media such as copper wires, fiber optic cables, or cellular networks.
- The signals may be amplified or regenerated along the way to maintain their integrity.
4. Signal Reception:
- The receiver's phone receives the incoming radio waves or signals.
- The signals are demodulated and converted back into electrical signals.
5. Audio Output:
- The electrical signals are amplified and played through the receiver's speaker or headset.
- The receiver can hear the caller's voice.
Additional Technologies Involved:
- Switching Systems: Connect calls between different parts of the telephone network.
- Codecs: Compress and decompress audio data to optimize signal transmission.
- VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol): Converts voice signals into digital packets and transmits them over the internet.
- Call Forwarding: Directs incoming calls to a specified destination, such as a voicemail or another phone number.
- Caller ID: Displays the phone number or name of the caller on the receiver's phone.
