    摘要: Provided are an apparatus failure influence range recognition apparatus, an apparatus failure influence range recognition method, and a program capable of billing for a proper call charge for a call suspected of non-provision of a service. An apparatus failure influence range recognition apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive apparatus failure information which is failure information of an element constituting a network, user information which is information regarding a user of a service, and call details information of an IP telephone, and a calculation unit configured to calculate, by linking the apparatus failure information, the user information, and the call details information with each other, a subtracted call charge with respect to a call charge for a suspected call influenced by an apparatus failure.

    摘要: A method and system for rating multiple call destination types from a single video relay kiosk in a corrections facility. The method comprises receiving an indication of a first dialed phone number by a video relay kiosk in a corrections facility, the first dialed phone number representing a destination for a first phone call; querying a remote database or a local database or a third-party service provider to determine a first call destination type associated with the first dialed phone number; recording the first call destination type returned from the query; and recording a first charge for the first phone call, the first charge being based upon a first rate associated with the first call destination type returned from the query.

    摘要: In a communications network, a database is searched for a least cost route in response to a call request from a subscriber, and a connection is established along the least cost route between the calling subscriber and a called subscriber. For the duration of the call, the database is repeatedly searched for a route having a cost lower than the cost of a previously determined route. If the route of lower cost is detected, a new connection is established along the lower cost route, instead of the currently established connection.

    摘要: A line whose toll is the lowest is calculated directly out of lines existing in each position within a private network on the basis of a telephone call toll data of each station so that trunks of all stations can be accessed through a local station trunk or a trunk line. Namely, the telephone call toll data is stored in each exchange and a central exchange within the private network or in a main storage unit within an external calculator of each station so that the data can be transmitted from the line whose toll is the lowest.

    摘要: System performance in a mobile communications system is improved by detecting whether the mobile unit has a particular capability, and adjusting operation of the base station to improve system performance in response to detection that the mobile unit has the particular capability. The capability may be radio reception with lower signal to interference (C/I) requirements. In this case, system performance may be improved by adjusting base station transmitter power to a reduced power range in response to detection that the mobile unit has the particular capability, thereby creating less interference to mobiles that require a higher C/I, and increasing system capacity. Detection may include receiving a signal from the mobile unit, wherein the signal is encoded to indicate whether the mobile station has the particular capability. Alternatively, the signal may be a signal that is encoded to identify from which one of a plurality of mobile units the identifying signal was received. In this instance, the base station uses the identifying signal to retrieve a capability-indicating code from a database, which may be located in the subscriber's home exchange. In another aspect of the invention, a lower of two billing rates is selected for billing a mobile unit in response to detection that the mobile unit has the particular capability. This passes along system savings to the subscriber, and creates an incentive for the subscriber to purchase the usually more expensive mobile unit that has the particular capability.
