CHARGING METHOD
term
The D TIMS can support the following charging methods on outgoing C.O. Call (Local/Toll
STD Call and International Call).
• Metering Pulse
The system counts up the metering pulse from Central Office, and calculates call charge
on each call with charging rate per pulse programmed.
• No Metering Pulse
The system analyzes the area code to identify the destination of the call, and calculates
call charge on each call according to the charging method of the network. (H-Method/K-
Method/Flat Rate)
H-Method: Time per pulse is fixed. Charging Rate per pulse varies depending on the destination
(Area).
K-Method: Charging Rate per pulse is fixed. Time per pulse varies depending on the distance to
the destination.
Flat Rate : Fixed charge per call regardless of call duration.
In addition, special charges such as Surcharge and Reduction charge can be provid-
ed with charging methods mentioned above as required.
Surcharge can not be provided with the Flat Rate method.
