Yes.  A cell phone’s base station is connected to the cell phone network with a cable or antenna, which the base station uses to send and receive data.  When you dial a number, the phone sends a signal through the cable to the base station, which transmits the data via an antenna to the cell phone network.  Then, the data is sent from the cell phone network to the server of the phone number you’re trying to call.  The server then sends a message back to the cell phone network, which transmits that information back to your cell phone via the antenna.

Can you explain more about what the base station is?
user
Sure!  The base station is an antenna, a transmitter, and a receiver.  It’s a device that transmits data wirelessly.  Each cell phone tower is part of the cell phone network, and many towers together make up a cell.  Cell phones that are in range of the tower can receive a signal.  The cell phone receives a signal when it’s powered on and the transmitter (or antenna) is in range of the receiver (or antenna).  The base station also has a transmitter and receiver so that it can talk to the cell phone network.  The cell phone network is a server

Okay thanks for the information. And can you tell me more about how the server works with the network?
