The signal is maintained by a proliferation of aerials in the ceiling, a result of a deal between NTL and Canary Wharf, that are arranged in a network connected to electronics housed in a cage behind the shops. Space on the network is leased to the mobile phone operators by NTL, enabling shoppers to use their mobile phones without leaving the shopping centre. Other shopping centres such as Bluewater have this arrangement to allow mobile phone operators to provide a service where otherwise the signal would be lost in the welter of walls, facades and goods. | ||
