<p>The nature of mobile reception means that the strength of signal received by a
handset varies over a set area, and is affected by local geography, and even by buildings
or trees. It is also affected by the handset used, as not all mobile phones are equal
in their ability to pick up a signal.</p><p>The Mobile Infrastructure Project's planning
assesses signal at a level of Neg 86dBm. The Project can intervene in areas where
there is no mobile coverage, at this level, from any operator, and where the cost
of the build of a mast considered alongside the numbers of premises that would benefit
from the additional coverage provides value for money.</p>
