Tugas Bahasa Inggris Ii TUGAS BAHASA INGGRIS II Mobile Phone Oleh : Muhammad Zainul Abidin (103112702650017) FAKULTAS TEKNOLOGI KOMUNIKASI DAN INFORMATIKA TELEKOMUNIKASI UNIVERSITAS NASIONAL 2012 Mobile phone A mobile phone (also known as a cellular phone, cell phone and a hand phone) is a device that can make and receive telephone calls over a radio linkwhilst moving around a wide geographic area. It does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by a mobile phone operator, allowing access to thepublic telephone network. By contrast, a cordless telephone is used only within the short range of a single, private base station. In addition to telephony, modern mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging, MMS, email, Internet access, short-range wireless communications (infrared, Bluetooth), business applications, gaming and photography. Mobile phones that offer these and more general computing capabilities are referred to as smartphones. The first hand-held mobile phone was demonstrated by Dr Martin Cooper of Motorola in 1973, using a handset weighing around 1 kg.In 1983, the DynaTAC 8000x was the first to be commercially available. In the twenty years from 1990 to 2011, worldwide mobile phone subscriptions grew from 12.4 million to over 5.6 billion, penetrating the developing economies and reaching the bottom of the economic pyramid History Radiophones have a long and varied history going back to Reginald Fessenden's invention and shore-to-ship demonstration of radio telephony, through theSecond World War with military use of radio telephony links and civil services in the 1950s. The first mobile telephone call made from a car occurred in St. Louis, Missouri, USA on June 17, 1946, using the Bell System's Mobile Telephone Service. In 1956, the world’s first partly automatic car phone system, Mobile System A (MTA), was launched in Sweden. MTA phones were composed of vacuum tubes and relays, and had a weight of 40 kg. Martin Cooper, a Motorola researcher and executive is considered to be the inventor of the first practical mobile phone for handheld use in a non-vehicle setting, after a long race against Bell Labs for the first portable mobile phone. Using a modern, if somewhat heavy portable handset, Cooper made the first call on a handheld mobile phone on April 3, 1973 to his rival, Dr. Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs. New York, Martin Cooper rivaled with Bell LAbs to create the first mobile phone.So when Cooper beat them to it, he made sure that his first call was to the chief competitor of Bell Labs.He stated "As I walked down the street while talking on the phone, sophisticated New Yorkers gaped at the sight of someone actually moving around while making a phone call. Remember that in 1973, there weren't cordless telephones or cellular phones. I made numerous calls, including one where I crossed the street while talking to a New York radio reporter - probably one of the more dangerous things I have ever done in my life.The new invention sold for an expensive price of $3,995 and weighed two pounds, receiving the nickname "the brick". The DynaTAc mobile phone cost $100m in development costs, and took over a decade to hit the market.[12] When it did hit the market on March 6, 1983,the talk time was only a half an hour and took ten hours to charge. Despite the horrible battery life, weight, and low talk time, that didn't keep down consumer demands. The waiting lists were in thousands Features All mobile phones have a number of features in common, but manufacturers also try to differentiate their own products by implementing additional functions to make them more attractive to consumers. This has led to great innovation in mobile phone development over the past 20 years. The common components found on all phones are: . A battery, providing the power source for the phone functions. An input mechanism to allow the user to interact with the phone. The most common input mechanism is a keypad, but touch screens are also found in some high-end smartphones. Basic mobile phone services to allow users to make calls and send text messages. All GSM phones use a SIM card to allow an account to be swapped among devices. Some CDMA devices also have a similar card called a R-UIM. Individual GSM, WCDMA, iDEN and some satellite phone devices are uniquely identified by an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number. Low-end mobile phones are often referred to as feature phones, and offer basic telephony. Handsets with more advanced computing ability through the use of native software applications became known as smartphones. Several phone series have been introduced to address a given market segment, such as the RIM BlackBerry focusing on enterprise/corporate customer email needs; the SonyEricsson Walkman series of musicphones and Cybershot series of cameraphones; the Nokia Nseries of multimedia phones, the Palm Pre the HTC Dream and the Apple iPhone. Text messaging The most commonly used data application on mobile phones is SMS text messaging. The first SMS text message was sent from a computer to a mobile phone in 1992 in the UK, while the first person-to-person SMS from phone to phone was sent in Finland in 1993. The first mobile news service, delivered via SMS, was launched in Finland in 2000. Mobile news services are expanding with many organizations providing "on-demand" news services by SMS. Some also provide "instant" news pushed out by SMS. SIM card GSM feature phones require a small microchip called a Subscriber Identity Module or SIM Card, to function, while smartphones can be used without it. The SIM card is approximately the size of a small postage stamp and is usually placed underneath the battery in the rear of the unit. The SIM securely stores theservice-subscriber key (IMSI) used to identify a subscriber on mobile telephony devices (such as mobile phones and computers). The SIM card allows users to change phones by simply removing the SIM card from one mobile phone and inserting it into another mobile phone or broadband telephony device. The first SIM card was made in 1991 by Munich smart card maker Giesecke & Devrient for the Finnish wireless network operator Radiolinja. Giesecke & Devrient sold the first 300 SIM cards to Elisa (ex. Radiolinja). Multi-card hybrid phones A hybrid mobile phone can take more than one SIM card, even of different types. The SIM and RUIM cards can be mixed together, and some phones also support three or four SIMs. From 2010 onwards they became popular in India and Indonesia and other emerging markets, attributed to the desire to obtain the lowest on-net calling rate. In Q3 2011, Nokia shipped 18 million of its low cost dual SIM phone range in an attempt to make up lost ground in the higher end smartphone market. Mobile phone operators The world's largest individual mobile operator by subscribers is China Mobile with over 500 million mobile phone subscribers. Over 50 mobile operators have over 10 million subscribers each, and over 150 mobile operators had at least one million subscribers by the end of 2009. In February 2010, there were 5.6 billion mobile phone subscribers, a number that is expected to grow.

  • 1 Why Phones Are Different
    1 Why Phones Are Different 1.1 The Origins of Mobile Phones The first mobile phone networks evolved from the technologies used in specialist mobile phone radio systems, such as train cab and taxi radios, and the closed networks used by emergency and police services and similar military systems. The first ever open, public network (i.e., open to subscribing cus- tomers rather than restricted to a dedicated group of private users) was the Autoradiopuhelin (ARP, or car radio phone) network in Finland. It was a car-based system, inaugurated in 1971 by the Finnish state telephone company, that peaked at around 35 000 subscribers [Haikio 2002, p. 158]. A more advanced system, the Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT) net- work, was opened a decade later in 1981 as a partnership between the Nordic state telecommunications monopolies (of Denmark, Finland, Nor- way and Sweden), achieving 440 000 subscribers by the mid-1990s, that is, more than a ten-fold increase on ARP [Haikio 2002, p. 158]. Unlike ARP, a car boot was no longer required to house the radio hardware. Ericsson, and later Nokia, were primary suppliers of infrastructure and phones, helping to give both companies an early edge in commercial mobileCOPYRIGHTED phone systems. MATERIAL Elsewhere, Motorola and AT&T competed to introduce mobile phone services in the Americas, with the first Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS) network from AT&T going public in 1984. European networks based on an AMPS derivative (Total Access Communication System, TACS) were opened in 1985 in the UK (Vodafone), Italy, Spain and France.1 Germany had already introduced its own system in 1981.
