Are cordless telephones classified as part of wireless telephone systems?

Cordless telephones are indeed classified as wireless telephone systems. They operate by transmitting signals between the base unit connected to a landline and the cordless handset that communicates wirelessly with the base. This technology allows users to move freely within the range of the base unit while maintaining communication, embodying the primary characteristic of wireless systems. Therefore, determining that cordless telephones are not part of wireless telephone systems is incorrect.

Wireless telephone systems generally cover a broad range of devices that use radio waves or other means to transmit telephone calls without physical connections. Cordless phones fit this definition, as they are designed to operate over specific distances without direct wiring, making the classification of cordless telephones as wireless systems unequivocal.
