Embodiment 1

[0080] Embodiment 1 - Resolution and Offline Billing of Videophone Calls

[0081] As shown in FIG. 2 , in this embodiment, the call scenario is: user 1 makes a videophone call to user 2 .

[0082] In the first process, User 1 (UE1) initiates a videophone call to User 2 (UE2), and establishes a videophone call in the form of a multimedia call. When initiating a call, the SETUP message sent by UE1 to MSC1 indicates that the call is a multimedia call, and MSC1 records the service type and call initiation time, and records the answer time when the call is answered.

[0083] In the second process, user 1 and user 2 establish a videophone call through in-band H.245 signaling, and the MSC monitors the process through the media gateway control interface. When it detects that the voice and video channels are successfully established, it indicates that the videophone call is established , MSC records the occurrence of service changes in the bill, including the service type after the ch...

Embodiment 2

[0091] Example 2 - Online Charging 1

[0092] As shown in FIG. 3 , the call scenario of this embodiment is: smart user 1 makes a voice call to ordinary user 2, and the user initiates a service change during the call to upgrade to a videophone call.

[0093] Step 31: Smart user 1 initiates a voice call, and the MSC (SSP) triggers the smart to report the IDP to the SCP.

[0094] Step 32, the SCP issues the RRBE.

[0095] Step 33, the SCP determines the user's maximum allowable call duration according to the voice service rate, and sends it to the SSP through an AC message.

[0096] Step 34, the SCP sends a CONTINUE message to continue the call.

[0097] Step 35. During the voice call, user 1 initiates a service change to a videophone service, and the SSP reports a service change message to the SCP, indicating that the initiator of the service change is the calling party.

[0098] Step 36: The SSP reports the ACR message of the previous voice call to the SCP, and reports the a...

Embodiment 3

[0103] Embodiment 3 - Online Charging 2

[0104] In this embodiment, the call scenario is: the smart user 1 makes a voice call to the ordinary user 2, and the user initiates a service change during the call to upgrade to a videophone call.

[0105] Step 41: Smart user 1 initiates a voice call, and the MSC (SSP) triggers the smart to report the IDP to the SCP.

[0106] Step 42, the SCP delivers the RRBE.

[0107] Step 43, the SCP sends the user's available quota and rate table to the SSP through the AC message.

[0108] Step 44, the SCP sends a CONTINUE message to continue the call.

[0109] Step 45. During the voice call, change the service type, such as changing the service type to videophone service, MSC multiplies the voice service rate and the voice call duration to obtain the used credit, and deducts it from the total credit After that, get the balance.

[0110] Step 46. When the call is over, the MSC deducts the amount used for the videophone call to obtain the final...

Abstract

The disclosed charge method comprises: recognizing business type, such as the visual telephone business; obtaining the charge message, and accordingly charging the business. This invention combines both off-line and on-line charge advantages, provides charge strategy for the service provider, and records whole charge process for reasonable charging.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a communication technology, in particular to a charging method and system. Background technique [0002] Currently, the WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) mobile communication system supports charging for voice calls and various data calls (including multimedia calls). There are two charging methods for calls: offline charging and online charging. [0003] Offline billing for calls means that when a user initiates a call, the offices that the call passes through generate their own bills (the calling end office has a mobile origination bill, the called end office has a mobile termination bill, and the tandem office There are tandem bills, and the gateway office has bills for entry and exit gateway offices, roaming bills, etc.), and the bills record information such as service type, call initiation time, and call duration. The operator generates these bills according to each office. Realize the billing and se...
