In our days, you can see cellular phone in the arms of nearly everybody in a megapolis. But if you inquire about who created the first cell telephone, or at least what establishment did it, the reply is silence. The history of the making of the earliest cellular phone takes its source from the midst of XX century.

Right that time the firm AT&T (the establishment that also proposes phone cards), or rather Bell Laboratories, firstly suggested to make a cellular telephone. In 1947 the proposition of development of mobile phone was really bold, that's why inventors decided to set chief types of such phones in a cars. it's clear, because telephone's weight at that time was about 30-40-kg, and it was really difficult to transfer such apparatus.

But during 1950 the reducing of a car phones began. Already in 1970-s the phones' their lost exceeding mass and their mass was about 12-14-kg, still and all there was a problem of autonomous power, and they still utilized a board network of a a vehicle. During this time, Motorola was offered portable radio senders, but they did not think over cellular phones development.

In 1954 Martin Cooper, young inventor of Motorola, started a new period of compact cellular phones. His general task was the creating of modern handheld apparatuses. His office created the first handheld radio to Chicago police department in 1967. After labouring for Motorola for nearly 20 years Martin comprehended his ability to invent a little mobile telephone.

In the course of year, design exertion of invention the chief cell telephone were made. At the same time the establishment motived Federal Communications Commission (FCC), that private enterprises would require free frequencies for the inculcation of cellular communication. Because of this there emerged a big skepticism from the staff of the best-known Bell Laboratories, who did not trust that those pocket phones could be invented with the lowest probable delay. Nevertheless, a advantageous decision was approved: Motorola was to demonstrate the possibility of making such nets.

At that time they could not fancy that in our days we would have phone cards utilized online prepaid phone cards. Hastily preparations for the checkout tests began; it was appointed to April 3, 1973. They put the first BS in the Alliance Capital Building in New York just in time. The earliest model of base stations could connect thirty users at most with stationary telecommunications. They named it Dyna-Tac, it had 12 keys and its weigh was 1.5 kg.

Dyna-Tac was without monitor and had no more supplementary characteristics. You could talk with anyone for thirty-five min, in case if you charged the phone for no less than ten hours. On April 3 Martin Copper called Joel Engel (using Dyna-Tac), who was the director of the investigation office of the Bell Laboratories. Certainly, it was a victory of Cooper and the firm Motorola at all. A bit later they realized that Dyna-Tac was a overturn in science and telecommunications in particular. Today a mobile telephone has become one of the most widespread apparatus as well as calling cards.
