specific Embodiment

[0035] First, create billing policy information in the database: mainly including the monthly basic fee deduction time corresponding to this billing policy, for example, at 1 am on the 1st, that is, the user’s basic fee will be deducted at 1 am on the 1st of each month ;Capped amount, that is, if the user's fee this month reaches the capped amount, it will be used for free in the future. Of course, the accumulation will be reset when the basic fee is deducted in the next month; Metering rate and discounts, such as metering fee The rate is 2 cents / 1 second, and the discount is 50% off from 21:00:00 to 23:59:59.

[0036] Secondly, it is necessary to establish the deduction status of the user's basic fee in the database: mainly including the time of the last deduction of the basic fee and the time of the next deduction of the basic fee. For example, the user deducted the basic fee at 1 am on August 1, 2003, The last time the user deducted the basic fee was "1:00 am on August 1, 2...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for implementing prepaid billing, which first establishes information such as relevant billing policies, user deductions, and user's monthly online fees; Whether the user's basic fee for this month is deducted, and if it is necessary to deduct the basic fee: further judge whether the user's balance is sufficient to deduct the basic fee, if the balance is insufficient, set the user's available time to 0, otherwise, deduct the user's basic fee; if it has been deducted If the basic fee for this month is paid, it is necessary to further budget the user's available time based on the user's account balance, the user's accumulated amount, and the relevant billing policy information. If the user's accumulated amount has reached the upper limit of the fee, the user The available time of this month will not be limited. If the accumulated amount of the user has not reached the cap amount, the user's available time will be calculated based on the user's account balance and related billing policies.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of data communication, in particular to a method for realizing prepaid billing. Background technique [0002] In the current data communication, the Radius protocol is generally used for user online authentication and billing (see RFC2865, RFC2866). The specific networking is as follows: figure 1 shown. The Radius protocol stipulates that after the user is authenticated, the Radius Server needs to send the user's available online time to the device so that the device can cut off the user in time. The specific process is as follows: figure 2 shown. However, in the current implementation of the Radius Server (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service), due to the existence of various flexible billing strategies, such as time period discounts, basic fees, fee caps, etc., the available time Budgets are generally rough. [0003] In the current online billing, there are generally various preferential policies for user...
