Calculation of Distance
Usage charges for all mileage sensitive products are based on the airline distance between
serving wire centers associated with the originating and terminating points of the call.
The serving wire centers of a call are determined by the area codes and exchanges of the
origination and destination points.
The distance between the Wire Center of the Customer s equipment and that of the
destination point is calculated by using the "V" and "H" coordinates according to industry
accepted standards.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
Step 6
Formula:
Obtain the "V" and "H" coordinates for the Wire Centers serving the
Customer and the destination point.
Obtain the difference between the "V" coordinates of each of the Wire
Centers. Obtain the Difference between the "H" coordinates.
Square the differences obtained in Step 2.
Add the squares of the "V" difference and "H" difference obtained in Step 3.
Divide the sum of the square obtained in Step 4 by ten (10). Round to the
next higher whole number if any fraction results from the division.
Obtain the square root of the whole number obtained in Step 5. Round to the
next higher whole number if any fraction is obtained. This is the distance
between the Wire Centers.
