Billing is an automated process that involves professional software. It analyzes how the signal passes through each cell, then sorts it and calculates what the cost of services will be for a particular owner. It is phone billing that forms the payment for telephone communication. After the call, he writes off as much money as indicated in your tariff plan.
Billing systems
Billing mobile phones is a complex process that requires modern, high-quality and powerful tools. Software, banking and legal support are the components of new technologies. It is because of this that the phone billing program exists only in large companies that are engaged in e-commerce and, of course, in regional cellular companies.
The function of this new system is that it calculates the price for mobile services separately for each person. Programs save information about the time when the user called, the duration and other characteristics of conversations for a certain period (for a year or six months). Phone billing involves professional software that is used in the accounting calculations of telecommunications operators.
Load sharing
As a rule, mobile operators cooperate with each other. They install one station and share it without spending extra money on software and hardware. Usually, in each city, one operator sets up a separate tower for himself. In the countryside and on the motorway, several companies use one. The owner of this mobile station will be alone, but other operators pay him for rent, its cost is calculated based on the number of calls.
Internet traffic is also handled by billing systems. In this case, the subscriber will be charged at a separate rate. Every company is different. In one, you need to pay for the time spent on the Internet, in the other - for the transmitted and received information packages.
Billing functions
Phone billing is based on a rather simple principle. The switching node records all data, namely the duration and characteristics of the conversation. Further, all the information received is sent to the central station, where the calculation is made.
Software installed in the central office processes all data and monitors regulatoryacts, tariffs and rates. Phone billing contains all information about the user (tariff, availability of bonuses, rates for certain areas).
These state-of-the-art databases store information about all payments made by each customer. This allows the settlement of withdrawals. High-quality and powerful computers are installed at billing stations, which allow you to make payments very quickly. Due to this, the result is almost instantly received on the subscribers' request about the account status.
The software also monitors the state of the user's account. The system has the ability to deactivate a subscriber. If a person has not replenished his account for a long time and does not use the services of a mobile company, then he is simply disconnected.
As you may have guessed, due to cell phone billing, a message pops up saying that the system cannot establish a connection with a zero bill. If you top up your phone balance, you can immediately use the services, the system connects them automatically.
Most mobile operators create a feedback function. It also controls cell phone billing. With it, by going to your personal account, you can replenish, disable, connect various services, change your tariff and much more.
If you go to the website of your mobile operator, you can see your actions for the last month due to phone billing. You can see who you had conversations with, for how long and how much money you charged for itfilmed.
Additional billing features: mobile surveillance
The mobile phone that we use for communication, like a camera, a video camera, a radio beacon, has some other functions. Now most crimes are investigated with the help of billing. This system is able to track all calls.
How can phone billing help in a murder investigation? It's simple, this system captures when we enter the Internet and where it happens, call or send SMS.
With the help of new technologies, namely billing, many high-profile crimes have already been investigated and the perpetrators have been found.
Subscriber is always available
The mobile phone is a great human achievement, a new technology that has advanced progress. Unfortunately, this technology can be used not for good, since a cellular one is a kind of radio beacon that will help track a person's location.
As we have already found out, the entire territory where there is a mobile connection is divided into cells. There are towers and special stations that have a specific address.
If you analyze the signal from a mobile phone, you can determine how far and where a person is (in a car, at home, on the street). Also, it is not difficult to determine the movement of the subscriber. You can take several towers and find out the route of a person with a small error.
Private billing
The first to use billing for investigations were private detectives. Of course, their actions violated the Criminal Code.
If it's forbidden, how did they get the information? The first way is to buy data from employees of a mobile company. But now it's not so easy, services have begun to deal with information leakage.
Now, to get detectives data, you will need to pay 500 dollars. And in order to analyze it, to find out the movement of a person, you need to pay 1,500 dollars. In most cases, in order for an employee of a cellular company to become interested in this "business", you need to constantly find out the numbers in large numbers.
Another way is to ask the operatives you know about the mobile phone and the person who owns it. But this is quite a long time, the investigation may be delayed.
