Problems solved by technology

[0029] However, the current DSMIPv6 tunnel connection does not provide the user's current RAT Type information, so the accounting information provided by the HA to the AAA server does not include the RAT Type. Therefore, in the current DSMIPv6-based mobility solution network, the AAA server The generated CDR does not contain the information of the user's current wireless access technology type, that is to say, the charging network element cannot combine the charging information with the corresponding charging rate for charging, so that it is impossible to realize the Differentiated Billing of GPRS

Embodiment Construction

[0075] Figure 4 A flow chart of the method for realizing billing in the present invention, such as Figure 4 Shown, the inventive method comprises:

[0076] Step 400: The AAA server obtains the current wireless access technology type of the user.

[0077] When the UE initially accesses the network, if the access network is I-WLAN, during the authentication process, the PDG sends the user's current wireless access technology type (i.e. I-WLAN) to the AAA server, or obtains the user's current wireless access technology type (ie I-WLAN) through the WLAN AN If the access network is a GPRS network, the AAA server directly obtains the charging information from the HA. At this time, the AAA server judges the The UE accesses from GPRS, that is, the user's current wireless access technology type is GPRS (including GERAN and UTRAN).

[0078] When the UE switches between I-WLAN and GPRS, switches to a new network and updates the binding relationship in the HA to the new binding relat...

Abstract

The invention provides a charging method and a charging system. According to the method and the system, an AAA server acquires a current radio access technology type of a user, and generates a CDR according to the acquired radio access technology type and charging information from an HA, and then transmits the CDR to a charging network element; and the charging network element identifies the current radio access technology type of the user according to the CDR, and charges by adopting different rates. Through the technical scheme of the invention, the CDR comprises the current radio access technology type of the user, so the charging network element charges by adopting the corresponding rates according to the radio access technology type to realize differentiated charging aiming at an I-WLAN and a GPRS.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the billing technology in the mobile network, in particular to a differentiated billing method and system in the mobile network. Background technique [0002] An Interworking Wireless Local Area Network (I-WLAN, Interworking Wireless Local Area Network) is a WLAN network that interacts with a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP, 3rd Generation Partnership Project) network. I-WLAN mainly includes wireless local area network access network (WLAN AN, WLAN Access Network), wireless local area network access gateway (WAG, WLAN Access Gateway), packet data gateway (PDG, Packet Date Gateway), authentication authorization accounting server (AAA Server, Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) and other supporting nodes. The purpose of interaction is to enable WLAN access technology to cooperate with 3GPP core network infrastructure, so that WLAN users can access 3GPP packet services through the WLAN access network.
