Abstract

In the inventive system, a telecommunication network includes a calling subscriber's terminal equipment, a called subscriber's terminal equipment, a home location register of the calling subscriber's subscription, a home location register of the called subscriber's subscription, a calling subscriber's visited mobile switching center, a communication server for route optimization of the connection to be set up, and a mobile switching center under which the called subscriber is located. A telecommunication connection is set up from the visited mobile switching center to the mobile switching center on the basis of call pricing data and/or network configuration data. The call pricing data and/or network configuration data for a variety of different possible routes are identified or determined by means of the communication server and used to identify the optimum route for the telecommunication connection.
