[0022] The first embodiment is an implementation of the invention in which low-cost 3G uplink RF monitoring equipment at home is used to detect a signal increase in a pre-selected 3G uplink frequency band (which indicates Notifies the network when there is a call originating from a home user). The decision server then compares the information received from the HZ device with the call details from the network. If there is a match, the call will be charged a HZ tariff. An implementation according to this embodiment can be seen in FIG. 2 .
[0023] Network operators provide HZ equipment to users (ie consumers) who want to use HZ tariffs. Each HZ device has a unique address. HZ devices consist of simple RF detectors with external or internal antennas. The HZ device is connected to the PC at home via USB. The customer installs the device using the network installation configuration information provided by the operator, which establishes the connection between the HZ device and...

[0027] The second embodiment is an implementation of the invention in which a HZ device with an RF detector and a correlator for decoding physical layer parameters is used. In this case, the 3G radio network reports the physical layer parameters of the call to the HZ device via the decision server via the DSL line. The HZ device starts decoding the radio physical parameters of the call over the air. Then, the HZ device compares the physical layer parameters measured over the air with the parameters sent by the decision server. If they match, the HZ device notifies the decision server that a call was made at home. The connection to the operator's network is via the Internet (ie a DSL line) or via a wireless device which could be a GPRS or 3G modem or any other related device. The implementation according to this embodiment is shown in FIG. 4 .
[0028] Network operators provide HZ equipment to consumers. HZ devices have unique addresses. The HZ device is connected to the P...

[0032] The third embodiment is an implementation of the present invention, wherein the HZ device transmits a known scrambling code simulating a fake cell, and informs the mobile phone that the cell is prohibited. The handset makes cell ID measurements and reports the cell to the Radio Network Controller (RNC). The RNC knows the barred cell ID and notifies the decision server that there is a call made at home. Then, the decision server makes a decision accordingly. The third embodiment can also be realized without using a PC connection. However this increases the complexity of operations in the RNC.
[0033] A dongle is a hardware device used to interface with a computer to authenticate any piece of software or configuration information. The 3G dongle device only continuously transmits the Synchronization Channel (SCH), Burst Channel (BCH) and Preliminary Common Pilot Channel (P-CPICH). In this embodiment, the HZ dongle can be inserted into the computer system and configure...
