Problems solved by technology

[0016] In the existing resource reservation process, when policy decision points reserve resources for services requested by users, they only reserve resources in a fixed manner, without considering the impact of changes in user account data on service provision. Insufficient customization of service provision, and it is likely to result in failure to provide services according to the reserved resources due to insufficient balance of the user account in the subsequent billing process, resulting in failure of service delivery

Embodiment 1

[0054] Embodiment 1, a method for resource reservation, as shown in the flowchart in FIG. 2 , includes:

[0055] Step a1, the network element receives the service request of the user, and requests the resource reservation policy from the policy decision point;

[0056] Step a2, the policy decision point formulates a resource reservation policy according to the account data of the user;

[0057] Please refer to FIG. 3 together. In this embodiment, the policy decision point formulates a resource reservation policy process according to the user's account data as follows:

[0058] Step b1, the policy decision point interacts with the billing system to obtain the account data of the user;

[0059] The user's account data may include: account balance and / or gifted resources and / or credit limit.

[0060] Step b2, the policy decision point searches for a quality of service parameter (QoS) corresponding to the account data of the user;

[0061] It can be understood that the policy d...

Embodiment 2

[0078] Embodiment 2, a method for resource reservation, the flow chart of which is shown in FIG. 4 , includes:

[0079] Step c1 to step c4 are the same as step a1 to step a4 in the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0080] Step c5, the network element sends an online charging request requesting to provide services to the user to the charging system;

[0081] In this embodiment, the online charging request is sent through a CCR message.

[0082] Step c6, the billing system charges the user's account, and returns the service quota to the network element.

[0083] In this embodiment, the process of the billing system charging the user's account includes: approval control, reservation control and other processes. The specific billing process can be implemented in an existing conventional manner, which does not constitute a limits.

[0084] Step c7, the network element provides services to the user according to the service quota.

[0085] On the basis of the fir...

Embodiment 3

[0086] Embodiment 3, a method for resource reservation, the flowchart of which is shown in FIG. 5 , including:

[0087] Step d1 to step d7 are the same as step c1 to step c7 in the second embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0088] Step d8: During the process of the network element providing services for the user, if the billing system judges that the amount of change in the user account data reaches a preset threshold, the billing system sends the updated account data to the policy decision point ;

[0089] Step d9, the policy decision point re-establishes the resource reservation policy according to the updated account data;

[0090] For the process of re-establishing the resource reservation decision, refer to step a2 in Embodiment 1.

[0091] Referring to Table 1, if the current account balance of the user is 3 yuan, QoS2 needs to be used for resource reservation.

[0092] Step d10, returning the reformulated resource reservation policy to the network element; ...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a resource reservation method, a billing failure processing method and a policy making point. Wherein, a network element receives service requests from users, requiring a resource reservation policy from a policy making point. The policy making point formulates a resource reservation policy according to account data of the user and returns the resource reservation policy to the network element. Thus, the network element executes the resource reservation policy to reserve resource for the user. The policy making point conducts resource reservation according to account data of the user, thus avoiding influencing services due to failure to take user account data variation into consideration for prior arts, ensuring more overall resource reservation basis and better customizing course of resource reservation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication charging, in particular to a method for resource reservation, a method for handling charging failure and a policy decision point. Background technique [0002] At present, in the process of charging users and providing services, the information based on the reservation of communication resources required by users mainly comes from the subscription information database, such as: Home Location Register (HLR), Home Subscriber Server ( HSS) etc. [0003] Referring to Figure 1, it is a general, existing resource reservation process, including: [0004] 101. After a network element (NE) receives a user service request; the network element sends a policy request to a policy decision point (PDP) to request a policy for resource reservation. [0005] A network element is a network entity that provides services to users, and can be different network entities according to different services provided,...
