Do mobile calls tend to dropout if you are moving through cities fast and the signal switches between many different towers? If not how does the call continue uninterupted when the signal keeps changing?

I'm not sure that this is the method that is actually used, but here's how it possibly could be done: 1. You're in range of tower A. 2. You move in range of both towers A and B. 3. The phone opens a simultaneous connection with B. 4. You move out of tower A's range. 5. The connection with B takes full responsibility as A drops the call.

The calls drop because the towers are not configured properly. If they aren't "aimed" correctly, you get "Dead Zones" usually it's just an inch or so in one direction, but it's enough to be a hassle. Your phone operates on wavelengths, which come and go from all directions, it's unlike a land line, which is physically hooked up to its server, so there's more flexibility as to which signal it uses.
