Where is the cell phone tower usually located?

According to the regulations of the telecommunication department, cell signal towers are generally installed on the roof.

However, the signal towers of communication companies are generally not built in residential areas because the strong radiation of base stations is harmful to human health. The state has no clear regulations and no specific legal basis, but if the owners jointly object, the communication company will not force the installation, and the places near the base station generally have high compensation. The signal transmission tower is installed at the edge of the community, and the radiation generated at such a close distance is likely to affect our health.

The signal tower is a wireless signal transmitter set by network operators such as China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. It looks like a tower, so it is called a signal tower.

Signal tower is also a form of public radio station, which refers to a radio transceiver station that transmits information with mobile terminals through a communication switching center in a certain radio coverage area. Since the popularity of wireless cities, signal towers have been used as the signal transmission base point of urban WIFI.

Some people call the signal tower a base station, such as a "telecom base station", which connects the fixed part with the wireless part and connects with the mobile station through wireless transmission in the air.
