The lower the signal the more your phone will constantly be searching for another tower with a better signal therefore needing to use more power. When you have a good signal your phone doesn't need as much power to transmit and it doesn't spend as much time searching for another tower.

I finally had a chance to look at your pics. Your device is waking up a lot. Not that good. I would get an app called Wakelock detector and see what is going on. I would guess FB. If true, then go into settings and change the refresh rate. By the amount of wake times, I would guess every 15 minutes? If so, then every 15 minutes, your phone is waking up to check status updates.

I am also guessing the GPS is on? Turn that off, and you may see improved battery life.
