The invention provides a device for enhancing performance of a portable
cellular phone within a mobile vehicle. The device includes a housing
located within the vehicle into which a portable cellular phone may be
placed. The housing includes an exterior layer that reflects noise
signals and an interior layer that reduces reflection of communication
signals within the housing. Signals are transmitted between the cellular
phone and an exterior-mount transceiver by means of a wireless RF
coupling device that is contained within the housing and connected to the
exterior-mount transceiver using a coaxial cable.
