signal boosters
Wireless coverage expanders
Signal boosters are devices that amplify weak signals to improve reception or transmission.
Most commonly refers to cellular boosters that strengthen mobile phone signals in areas with poor coverage: We installed a signal booster in the basement office.
Similar devices exist for Wi-Fi, radio, and television signals.
The term sometimes appears figuratively for anything that amplifies a message or increases visibility.
