<p>The invention refers to a method for defining a zone for location based billing and/or services, wherein the zone is a part of a geographical area which is served by nodes of a telecommunications network, the method comprising the steps of:
a) defining a zone within the geographical area,
b) determining all serving nodes of the telecommunications network which serve said zone defined in step a),
c) determining an initial area whose geographical perimeter envelopes the physical location of all of said serving nodes,
d) determining a density vector which has its basis in the centroid of said initial area defined in step c) and which points into the direction of the smallest density of said serving nodes being located in said initial area
and
e) determining a final area which has its centroid on said density vector and which is enlarged compared to the initial area so that no serving nodes are located in said final area which are not located in said initial area, wherein the final area is said zone for location based billing.</p> |
