INTERCONNECT - ROAMING

Interconnect in Roaming could be monitored via the following scenario based events (*Only Voice Call Events considered).

MOC - If the call is originated in the roaming network, that would come in as TAPOUT, the originating network would make sure that in its Interconnect agreement with the terminating network if different from the subscriber's network should be paid for this call and if the terminating network is the home network of the subscriber it should be considered as per the INTERCONNECT AGREEMENT in between these two Network Operators. In both the cases the TAPOUT charge should be above the terminating charge in order to have the call Routing/Roaming Network to be on the profitable side of the business.

MTC - If the call is terminated in the roaming network, a RCF leg is generated in the home network, again this event would be reported by the Roaming Network Operator through TAPOUT to the home network of the subscriber plus this incoming call event would also be considered as per the Interconnect Agreement.
