Processing method and system based on group data stream charge

Abstract

The invention discloses a charging processing method based on packet data flow, adding charging information collection function in CRF, increasing interaction process between CRF and OCS, so that OCS can provide credit information to CRF according to credit request of CRF , such as the specific credit line, whether the credit line is sufficient, etc., can also enable CRF to return the credit line that needs to be replenished to OCS, and OCS will replenish the corresponding credit line to the user's account; and increase the relationship between CRF and AF The interaction process enables the CRF to know the status of the user's subscription service, and to know whether the service is successfully used or not. In addition, the present invention also discloses a charging system based on packet data flow, which increases the signaling interface between CRF and CDF / CGF, so that CRF can transfer the billing generated in the case of online charging or offline charging Fee information is reported to the billing center through CDF / CGF, so as to realize the collection of business fees based on the FBC system structure and meet the requirements for business operations in the network.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of packet data charging, in particular to a processing method and system for charging based on packet 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] figure 1 Shows the packet data protocol context (PDP Context, Packet Data ProtocolContext) activation, data transmission, deactivation flowchart, such as figure 1 As shown, in the general packet radio service (GPRS, General Packet Radio Service), the implementation process of activating the PDP Context, performing data interaction with the external packet data network (PDN, Packet Data Network), and deactivating the PDPContext includes the following steps: [0004] Step 101: the mobile terminal (MS) sends a PDP Context activation request (Activate PDPContext Request) to the Serving General Packet Radio...

Problems solved by technology

[0027] However, based on the current FBC system structure, since there is no signaling interface between TPF and AF, TPF cannot know whether the service is successfully used or not. For example, for download services, if the download process is interrupted abnormally , then only the communication fee should be charged at this time, and the service fee should not be charged; moreover, the TPF cannot know the situation of the user's subscription service. For example, when a user subscribes to a service, the service fee is charged by monthly TPF cannot know that the user's business expenses should be deducted uniformly every month, and cannot be deducted every time the user uses the service

Therefore, based on the current FBC system structure, the collection of business fees cannot be realized, and the requirements for business operations in the network cannot be met.
