A model of competition between two interconnected cellular networks is presented which shows the effects of cellular … termination charges on competition and market penetration in the cellular sector. We show that the determination of cellular … fixed-to-cellular prices are determined under perfect competition …

We develop a model of competition between interconnected networks, with separate local and long-distance markets …, allowing for various degrees of symmetry between carriers. Assuming two part pricing, we show that effective competition can be … interconnected local networks want to agree on cost based interconnection charges, but that through competition for local market …
