Calculation of the Predicted Cost
Least Cost Routing uses a supposed call duration
[2035 Predicted call duration] for the calculation of the
predicted cost. The cost analysis calculates the cost
for each carrier that offers a connection to the
requested destination.
Calculation using the billing principle „pulse“
This calculation uses also the cost per metering pulse.
The cost per metering pulse [8423] can be defined for
every tenant using the carrier.
The following formula calculates the predicted cost.
Cost = (Inital_Pulses + Pulse_Frequency *
Predicted_call_duration) * Pulse_Cost_LCR
Calculation using the billing principle „duration“
The calculation can be adapted to tenant-specific
requirements. You can define a discount factor [8425]
for every tenant using that carrier.
The following formula calculates the predicted cost.
Cost = (Inital_Cost + Cost/second *
Predicted_call_duration) * Discount_factor_LCR_%
