Embodiment 1
[0043] A user has paid for an e-book from a third-party service provider, and the third-party service provider allows the user to download the e-book for free, for example, by allowing a certain amount of service traffic to be downloaded (Volume Allowance), Combine below Figure 4 This process is described in detail.
[0044] Figure 4 It is a flowchart of an online charging message proposed for a dynamic data usage enhancement strategy according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, assuming that this embodiment uses an EPC core network as an example, the process of generating specific charging information includes the following steps:
[0045] Step 401: The UE attaches to the EPS network, that is, the UE attaches to the P-GW.
[0046] Step 402, the P-GW and the PCRF establish an IP-CAN session.
[0047] Step 403: The UE attempts to access the e-book download service provided by the operator or a third-party service provider to the AF, that is, the UE...
Embodiment 2
[0059] Before the user decides to pay for online movies, the third-party service provider allows the user to browse for a certain period of time for free, for example, by allowing a certain period of time to preview the movie (Time Allowance), the following combination Figure 4 This process is described in detail.
[0060] Figure 4 It is a flowchart of an online charging message proposed for a dynamic data usage enhancement strategy according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, assuming that this embodiment uses an EPC core network as an example, the process of generating specific charging information includes the following steps:
[0061] Step 401: The UE attaches to the EPS network, that is, the UE attaches to the P-GW.
[0062] Step 402, the P-GW and the PCRF establish an IP-CAN session.
[0063] Step 403: The UE attempts to access the free viewing of movie clips provided by the operator or a third-party service provider to the AF, that is, the U...

Abstract
The invention discloses an online charging method and an online charging device, wherein the method comprises the following steps that: a network element embedded with a policy and charging enforcement function (PCEF) allows user equipment to use a certain amount of service for free; the network element embedded with the PCEF interacts with an online charging system for credit control. According to the invention, the online charging can be realized in the event that the third partyservice provider or operator allows users to use a certain amount of service for free.
Description
Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communications, in particular to an online charging method and device. Background technique [0002] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of online billing logic based on related technologies, such as figure 1 As shown, the credit control request / response message (Credit Control Request / Credit Control Answer, CCR / CCA) of the online charging method is through the charging trigger function (Charging Trigger Function, CTF) embedded in the network element Follow Diameter protocol through R O The interface interacts with an online charging system (Online Charging System, OCS for short) in real time. figure 1 The network element (NE) in the network element can be embedded with policy and charging enforcement function entities (Policy and Charging Enforcement Function, referred to as PCEF) or not embedded. The embedded PCEF is the deployment strategy and strategy targeted by the present invention. The case of charging co...
