20、 1995) 1 Explanation of some of the terms used in this Recommendation An explanation of some of the terms used in this Recommendation is given in Recommendation D.000. 2 Determination of accounting rates in telex relations between countries in Europe and the Mediterranean Basin 2.1 General 2.1.1 Sin
21、ce the setting-up of any international call involves both the international network and the national networks of the terminal countries, the accounting rate share for each country is derived from three basic elements, to which separate standard rates are applied: the line (transmission) part of the
22、international network, which includes the various transmission systems used and is a function of the distance; the international exchange, i.e. the switching part of the international circuit, plus the terminal transmission equipment; the national extension, which denotes that part of the national n
23、etwork of each terminal country involved in completing the connection. - - - 2.1.2 In special cases where the line (transmission) part of an international connection is: - - a HF radio link, a tropospheric scatter link; or the provisions of this Recommendation with regard to the determination of an
24、accounting rate share in relation to the length of the international circuit are not applicable and accounting rate shares should be agreed upon between the Administrations concerned. Cases in which the line (transmission) part of a connection is a satellite link are dealt with in Annex D. 2.2 Calcu
25、lation of distances (line part) 2.2.1 Distances to be taken into consideration 2.2.1.1 General case In determining the share payable to a country for the use of international circuits, the distance to be taken into consideration is, in principle: In a terminal country - The crowflight distance betwe
26、en: a) b) the point at which the international circuit crosses the frontier; and the intemational exchange at which the circuit terminates; Countries in the Mediterranean Basin are countries not belonging to Europe but bordering the Mediterranean Sea. *) The standard rates given in this Recommendati
27、on were approved in 1984. Recommendation D.301 R (03/95) 1 - ITU-T RECMN*D-303R 95 W 4862593 Ob00833 O40 W In a transit country - The crowflight distance between the two frontier points at which the international circuit enters and leaves the country in question. The above provisions for the calcula
28、tion of distances apply to international circuits both on land cables and on radio-relay links. 2.2.1.2 Special cases 2.2.1.2.1 When a frontier is crossed by a radio-relay section of an international circuit passing over a third country or over the sea, without an intermediate relay station, the fro
29、ntier point for measuring the circuit length shall be the point midway between the two relay stations on either side of the frontier. Radio-relay links crossing the sea or a third country 2.2.1.2.2 Submarine cables With regard to international circuits which are routed in submarine cables, the dista
30、nce to be used for accounting will be calculated as follows: a) for the land section of the circuit to the cable station, the distance shall be calculated in accordance with the general principles (Le. the crowflight distance), it being assumed that the point at which the circuit crosses the frontie
31、r is the cable station; for the submarine cable section, the distance used shall be the actual route distance between the submarine cable stations, as determined and agreed by the joint owners of the cable; the distance will be divided appropriately (normally 50/50) between the countries at the extr
32、emities of the cable. b) 2.2.1.2.3 Special itineraries In exceptional circumstances, multiplication factors may be applied to the crowflight distance, from which the terminal and transit charges are calculated, to take account of special itineraries. For example, in the case of a direct transit coun
33、try, the crowflight distance between the points on the frontier at which the circuit enters and leaves the country may (in exceptional circumstances) be replaced by a length representing the sum of two crowflight segments making up a broken line, etc. 2.2.2 Possibility of weighting distances For cal
34、culation of the crowflight distances for the intemational section, a weighting, according to the number of circuits, is normally applied in a given relation to simplify accounting: when there are several international arteries with different itineraries terminating at an international exchange: when
35、 there are several international exchanges in a country for the relation concerned. - - This weighting serves to determine a length (crowflight distance) for fixing the accounting rate shares relating to the international section and it would remain in force as long as the structure of the network w
36、as not significantly changed. The length of the international section would then be used to fuc the international section element for the shares for international telex circuits. 2.2.3 2.2.3.1 2.2.3.2 2 Rounding off distances Distances less than 50 km shall be rounded up to 50 km. Example: distance
37、of 24 km rounded up to 50 km. Other distances shall be rounded off to the nearest multiple of 50 km. Examples - - - distance of 72 km rounded off to 50 km; distance of 126 km rounded off to 150 km; distance of 175 krn rounded off to 200 km. Recommendation D.301 R (03/95) ITU-T RECMN*D*301R 95 = 4862

39、al exchange in a transit countryb)* c, - - 2.2.3.3 This rounding rule applies to the distances in each of the terminal countries and in each of the transit countries and is applied to the total distance calculated for any one country. It is applicable to the remuneration of Administrations both on t
40、he basis of a flat-rate price for the facilities made available and on the basis of traffic units. 2.2.3.4 When distances are weighted in accordance with the provisions of 2.2.2, the rounding shall be applied only after the weighted distance has been calculated. 2.2.4 Existence of several routes in
41、a given relation When in a given relation there are several routes traversing different transit countries, these transit countries shall in ali cases receive the share or flat-rate price normally due to them for the distance between the points of entry and exit; any cost of equalizing collection cha
42、rges in a relation comprising different routes shall be borne solely by the Administration of the country of origin and no deduction shall be made from the remuneration due to the transit countries. SDR 0.817 0.817 2.3 For international accounting purposes, there are two methods of remuneration for
43、the facilities made available by Administrations: Standard rates to be applied for international accounting - - Remuneration on the basis of traffic units on the basis of traffic units; on the basis of a flat-rate price for the facilities made available. 2.3.1 To determine the accounting rate shares
44、 for each country, the following standard rates, per minute of telex call, are recommended: I 1) Intemtional network a) Manual operation: b) Semi-automatic and automatic operation: SDR - per 100 km of international circuit (excluding any national circuit required for connecting the international exc
45、hange to the national exchange serving the subscriber)a). b, for the semi-automatic intemational exchange in the country of originb) for the automatic international exchange in the country of originb)# for the automatic international exchange in the country of destinationb)+C) for an automatic inter
46、national exhange in a transit countryb)* c, - - - - 0.784 0.029 0.029 0.039 a) The rate for the line element was calculated at 0.0008 and 0.0003 SDR per 100 km and per minute for manual and automatic operation respectively. Because of these relatively low amounts, the cost of the line element was in
47、cluded in the rate shares for the international exchange, taking into account an average distance of 500 km for incoming and outgoing terminal traffic and of loo0 km for transit traffic. As a consequence, direct transit traffic can only be charged for on the basis of the flat-rate procedure. b, The
48、standard rates mentioned for the line element per 100 km of circuit and per minute as set out in footnotea) above may not be appropriate to some small capacity submarine cables. In these cases the rates should be fixed by agreement among the parties concerned. This amount includes the cost of the tr
49、ansmission equipment for one extremity in terminal operation and for two extremities in transit operation. c, Recommendation D.301 R (03/95) 3 A ITU-T RECMNtD.301R 95 m Y862591 0600835 2) National extension 913 m mount may be added to cover the cost of the extension of calls over the national ne work, taking into account: - the (weighted average) number of national exchanges by which an outgoing or incoming international call is routed; the (weighted average) number of terminal transmission equipments (component A)3) by which an outgoing
