Abstract: The end points of a fixed segment in the Euclidian plane covered by a Poisson Voronoï tessellation belong to the same cell or to two distinct cells. This marks off one or two points of the underlying Poisson process that are the nucleus(i) of the cell(s). Our interest lies in the geometrical relationship between these nuclei and the segment end points as well as between the nuclei. We investigate their probability distribution functions conditioning on the number of nuclei, taking into account the length of the segment. The aim of the study is to establish some tools to be used for the analysis of a telecommunication problem related to the pricing of leased lines. We motivate and give accurate approximations of the probability of common coverage and of the length distributions that can be included in spreadsheet codes as an element of simple cost functions.
