"A nano particle" Well, a single nanometer is smaller than a strand of human DNA. Assuming that a resonant frequency would have to be a quarter ( or even half ) wavelength to excite the material you would have to use 3*10^18 hz spectrum which puts you roughly in the xray band.
The higher your frequency the more energy gets displaced over distance. For the xray band to go 10' it will lose 348dB. To put that in perspective the lowest noise in the universe is -174dBm. Some people call it "God's noise" or the "big bang echo" but it is the lowest noise possible at any reasonable temperature. In order for a cell tower to transmit xray over any reasonable distance ( let's say 1 mile ) and reach this nana particle with any reasonable energy a cellphone tower would have to transmit at 15,848,931,924,611,300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 watts of energy.
Have you ever had an Xray done? You know how the xray tech stands behind that lead shield? I'm fairly confident in saying the power is considerably less than that big ass number I just calculated. That likely means that anyone in a 500' radius of that signal will instantly be turned into mist as their entire body tries to evaporate at the speed of light.
I would say that your scenario seems unlikely.
edit: To put that number in perspective most ( ~99% ) Wireless carriers don't broadcast above 60 watts.
edit2: I had to look up what to call it. That number is almost 16 quindecillion watt of energy.
If Inwere a comic book villian I would use Bluetooth from the phones themselves. Just about everyone carries a cell phone these days and controlling the bluetooth radio on a phone could easily be done with an app.

Do you think something like this is possible:
blanket spray humans with a nano particle which has a resonate activated processor.
the container of the particle is synthetic DNA so is treated as such and not rejected by the body.
then activate the resonate Freq via cell towers in any location.
the freq wirelessly activates the process breaking down the DNA releasing the contents for a specific result.
I.e simulation of a pandemic etc.

Ok so lets breakdown the math on this a bit.

thanks for the reply - interesting.
i suppose the trigger could work on different specifics - if it worked directly at the transmission source in a small radiance.
i.e though WIFI or local Data transponders sources.
so not directly from the tower. but sending a "key" signal to the various nodes.
interesting, i'm a comic book super villain, so i'm just thinking about this.

yeah in a convoluted broken way that's what i said, ha ha but not Bluetooth specifically .
