Network competition and interconnection with heterogeneous subscribers
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the two-way access pricing in the telecommunications market where firms are allowed to use non-linear tariffs and consumers are heterogeneous in their demand for calls. The study first investigates the impact of access charges on the tariffs offered by firms in symmetric equilibrium and then shows that, under certain conditions, each firmEs profit is independent of reciprocal access charge. The study found that the charge of collusion using access charges is unsustainable.
