#Range _of_Cell_Site
The working range of a cell site (the range which mobile devices connects reliably to the cell site) is not a fixed figure. It will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to:

1.Height of antenna over surrounding terrain (Line-of-sight propagation).

2.The frequency of signal in use.

3.Timing limitations in some technologies (e.g., GSM is limited to 35 km, with 70 km being possible with special equipment)

4.The transmitter's rated power.

5.The required uplink/downlink data rate of the subscriber's device

6.The directional characteristics of the site antenna array.

7.Reflection and absorption of radio energy by buildings or vegetation.

8.It may also be limited by local geographical or regulatory factors and weather conditions.
