Tone detection resource calculation

For each network region, perform the following procedure.

Step 7. Tone detection calculation

Begin _____________________

1. Estimate the total carried load on the resource. To this end, sum over all call classifier and tone detection types the following:

(Busy Hour Number of detections/classification) x (Average Hold Time [in seconds]) / 3600

2. Calculate the number of G700s required to provide Grade of Service. There are eight ports per G700, which is 2.05 Erlangs @ P001 or 3.1 Erlangs @ P01.

Number of G700 Media Gateways required = (Carried Load [Step 1]) / (2.05 or 3.1), rounded up.

3. Compare this result with the G700 Media Gateway number from Step 5.
