Sorry, no way for a private person to increase the signal.
A phone company has to put an antenna closer to your home, the current antenna is to far away.
Maybe you should look the people living around you, if they have a smarphone and if they are satisfied, ask them which company provide their phone and switch to that one.

I think he want to increase the WiFi signal in his house.

There are several ways to increase your WiFi signal:
1) Turn your wifi antenna's (or just turn the wifi router if it's doesn't have external antenna's). Most wifi antenna's are slightly directional which means they send more energy in certain directions.
2) If possible, install a better antenna on your wifi router. These antenna's boost the signal with a few dB in certain directions (so in certain places it'll be better and in other places it'll be worse!). This is not possible if you can't swap the antenna's on your wifi router.
3) This highly depends on your wifi router, but certain firmwares allow you to boost the WiFi signal. You also disable power saving features to get a more powerful signal.
4) Get a 802.11n WiFi router if: your cell phone supports it and if you don't already have on.
5) Get a WiFi repeater

@wutske : seems that the wlan is away form his house, so he cannot directly connect to the router or swap antenna's.

@yordan : there is a possiblitiy for increasing signal strength by increasing height of antenna or swapping it, if he is using external wifi receiver or receiver have detachable antenna point. By this he can make possible to reduce number of obstacles between transmitting and receiving end.

I have to create a new post because I am not able to edit my last. I have found some resources that may help you to increase Wi-Fi signal strength at receiving ends.
