The mobile phone (also called a wireless phone or cellular

phone) is a short-range, portable electronic device used for mobile


voice or data communication over a network of specialized base
stations known as cell sites. In addition to the standard voice function
of a telephone, current mobile phones may support many additional
services, and accessories, such as SMS for text messaging, email,
packet switching for access to the Internet, gaming, Bluetooth,
infrared, camera with video recorder and MMS for sending and
receiving photos and video. Most current mobile phones connect to a
cellular network of base stations (cell sites), which is in turn
interconnected to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) (the
exception is satellite phones).
Advantage and factors involving risk on the following topics
• Nowadays, cell phones are very popular. Nearly each of us have it. We like
talking on cell phones, sending SMS, playing games etc. But is that a good way
to communicate?
To start with, with cell phones we can communicate with others wherever we
are. If necessary, we can ask someone for help any minute now.
Secondly, cell phones can help us with organize our daily plans. They can
remind us of meetings, duties etc. They can also help us with our work
( calculator, currency converter etc.).
Also, they are information sources. From Internet, WAP or new EraOmnix we
can read news from country and world, sport news, interesting facts and other.
Thirdly, they can give us some entertainment with phone games, WAP and SMS
games.
On the other hand, everybody can find us. In the long run it is very annoying.
Also connections costs more money than in stationary phones.
Also, cell phones are harmful to our health, because they create radiation ( from
phone receiver ).
In conclusion, I think that although cell phones have their weak points, they are
very usable and necessary. In my opinion this is a good way to communicate.
State any laws and the punishment of the crime enforce by the law
makers

• Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and the District of Columbia each have
enacted a jurisdiction-wide ban on driving while talking on a handheld cellular
phone.
• Five states (Illinois, Massachusetts, New Mexico, Ohio and Pennsylvania) allow
localities to ban cell phone use. Localities that have enacted restrictions on cell
phone use include: Chicago, IL; Brookline, MA; Santa Fe, NM; Brooklyn, North
Olmstead and Walton Hills, OH; and Conshohocken, Lebanon and West
Conshohocken, PA.
• Seven states (Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, Oklahoma and
Oregon) prohibit localities from banning cell phone use.
• Eleven states (Arizona, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Tennessee, and Texas) and DC
prohibit the use of all cellular phones while driving a school bus.
• Ten states (Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland,
Minnesota, New Jersey, Tennessee, and Texas) and DC restrict the use of
cellular phones by teens in the graduated licensing system.
• All but three states with cell phone bans have primary enforcement laws. New
Jersey’s ban is a secondary enforcement law for everyone except school bus
drivers and learner’s permit and intermediate license holders. Colorado and
Maryland have secondary enforcement laws. Secondary enforcement laws may
only be enforced when a driver has been stopped for another infraction.
Actions taken on such risk on the company concern the government
and you.
• The use of mobile phones by people who are driving has become increasingly common,
either as part of their job, as in the case of delivery drivers who are calling a client, or by
commuters who are chatting with a friend. While many drivers have embraced the
convenience of using their cellphone while driving, some jurisdictions have made the
practice against the law, such as the Canadian provinces of Quebec, Nova Scotia, and
Newfoundland and Labrador as well as the United Kingdom, consisting of a zero-tolerance
system operated in Scotland and a warning system operated in England, Wales, and
Northern Ireland. Officials from these jurisdictions argue that using a mobile phone while
driving is an impediment to vehicle operation that can increase the risk of road traffic
accidents.

• Like all high structures, cellular antenna masts pose a hazard to low flying aircraft. Towers
over a certain height or towers that are close to airports or heliports are normally required
to have warning lights. There have been reports that warning lights on cellular masts, TV-
towers and other high structures can attract and confuse birds. US authorities estimate
that millions of birds are killed near communication towers in the country each year.[44]
• An example of the way mobile phones and mobile networks have sometimes
been perceived as a threat is the widely reported and later discredited claim
that mobile phone masts are associated with the Colony Collapse Disorder
(CCD) which has reduced bee hive numbers by up to 75% in many areas,
especially near cities in the US. The Independent newspaper cited a scientific
study claiming it provided evidence for the theory that mobile phone masts are
a major cause in the collapse of bee populations, with controlled experiments
demonstrating a rapid and catastrophic effect on individual hives near masts.
[45] Mobile phones were in fact not covered in the study, and the original
researchers have since emphatically disavowed any connection between their
research, mobile phones, and CCD, specifically indicating that the Independent
article had misinterpreted their results and created "a horror story".[46][47][48]
While the initial claim of damage to bees was widely reported, the corrections
to the story were almost non-existent in the media.
Implementation on law enforcers
• Law enforcement have used mobile phone evidence in a number of different
ways. In the EU the "communications of every mobile telephone user are
recorded". In other countries, evidence about the physical location of an
individual at a given time has been introduced by triangulating the individual's
cellphone between several cellphone towers. This triangulation technique can
be used to show that an individual's cellphone was at a certain location at a
certain time. The concerns over terrorism and terrorist use of technology
prompted an inquiry by the British House of Commons Home Affairs Select
Committee into the use of evidence from mobile phone devices, prompting
leading mobile telephone forensic specialists to identify forensic techniques
available in this area. NIST have published guidelines and procedures for the
preservation, acquisition, examination, analysis, and reporting of digital
information present on mobile phones can be found under the NIST Publication
SP800-101.
• In the UK in 2000 it was claimed that recordings of mobile phone conversations
made on the day of the Omagh bombing were crucial to the police investigation.
In particular, calls made on two mobile phones which were tracked from south
of the Irish border to Omagh and back on the day of the bombing, were
considered of vital importance.Further example of criminal investigations using
mobile phones is the initial location and ultimate identification of the terrorists
of the 2004 Madrid train bombings. In the attacks, mobile phones had been
used to detonate the bombs. However, one of the bombs failed to detonate, and
the SIM card in the corresponding mobile phone gave the first serious lead
about the terrorists to investigators. By tracking the whereabouts of the SIM
card and correlating other mobile phones that had been registered in those
areas, police were able to locate the terrorists.
