Telecommunications Traffic, Tariffs and Costs. An Introduction for Managers — Recommend this title to your library

Thank you

Your recommendation has been sent to your librarian.

This chapter discusses traffic measurement, forecasting and equipment quantities. The idea of measuring traffic in terms of traffic-flow units was first conceived with the sole objective of ensuring the cost-efficient handling of telephone calls on a circuit-switched network. Other types of telecommunications traffic are now carried on the same circuit-switched network in addition to telephone calls but, since all traffic is in the form of separate successive calls, traffic measurement on the basis of erlang or CCS units remains a valid concept.
