Problems solved by technology

[0037] In addition, after the AF receives the packet data service request sent by the UE, it will provide the input information related to the application / service to the CRF. These input information may lead to changes in the charging rules, thereby changing the credit control in online charging. In turn, it will also affect the implementation of online charging, which is not described in the charging method based on the FBC mechanism
[0038] To sum up, the existing charging scheme based on the FBC mechanism does not give a complete description of the implementation process of online charging. According to the existing charging scheme based on the FBC mechanism, online charging based on business data flow cannot be realized at all.

Embodiment Construction

[0083] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0084] In the present invention, the OCS determines the credit according to the obtained input information related to the credit control, and then provides the credit for the charging rule to the TPF.

[0085] FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of Embodiment 1 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, in this embodiment, the implementation process of online charging based on service data flow includes the following steps:

[0086] Step 401 to Step 403: UE sends a bearer establishment request to TPF. After receiving the bearer establishment request, the TPF requests the charging rule from the CRF, and provides input information for determining the charging rule to the CRF. After the CRF receives the charging rule request, according to the input information carried ...

Abstract

The method includes steps: CRF provides input information for credit control for OCS; based on the said input information for credit control, OCS determines credit; OCS provides the said credit for TPF. The invention also provides another method including steps: through TPF, CRF provides input information for credit control for OCS; based on the said input information for credit control, OCS determines credit; OCS provides the said credit for TPF. The invention makes minor modification to existing online charging structure based on FBC mechanism. The invention discloses multiple implementation modes to improve online charging realization scheme based on existing FBC charging mechanism.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the charging field, in particular to an implementation method for perfecting online charging based on service data flow. Background technique [0002] With the gradual widespread application of packet data services, how to charge packet data services accurately and reasonably has become a common concern of operators. [0003] In the current general packet radio service (GPRS, General Packet Radio Service) billing system, only the access point name (APN) and the packet data protocol context (PDP Context, Packet Data Protocol Context) can be identified for the service data flow of the user At this level, billing can only be performed according to APN and PDP Context. However, in practical applications, multiple parallel service data streams are likely to be carried by the same PDP Context, and different services may require different charging methods for charging. The current GPRS charging system cannot meet this requirement. n...
