Method and device for sending charging data recording

Abstract

A method and a device for sending a charging data recording are provided in the present invention. The method according to the present invention includes that: a charging gateway receives charging information from an application server, wherein the charging information carries an identifier which indicates whether the charging information needs to be combined; in the case that there are multiple application servers, the charging gateway combines the multiple charging information, wherein the charging information is the charging information which carries the identifier indicating that the charging information needs to be combined; the charging gateway generates a charging data recording according to the combined charging information; and the charging gateway sends the charging data recording to a charging center. The present invention can resolve the problems that the charging center often needs to process a great deal of information so that repeated charging is caused and that the processing in the charging center is relatively complex, and thereby realize the effect of reducing the burden of the charging center for processing information and the effect of avoiding repeated charging.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communications, in particular to a method and device for sending billing information reports. Background technique [0002] In the existing Central Exchange (abbreviated as Centrex) network environment based on IP Multimedia Subsystem (IP Multimedia Subsystem, abbreviated as IMS) architecture, Centrex services are often provided by a Centrex application server (Application Server, abbreviated as AS) (Most of them are SCP upgrades of the existing network) and MMTel AS are completed together. Since the two network elements are independent entities, they will generate their own offline charging information, and then report the charging information to the charging gateway through Diameter messages. The charging gateway will generate a charging information report (CDR) according to the charging information received by the Centrex AS and the MMTel AS, and upload them to the charging center through the Bi interfac...
