Problems solved by technology

[0006] Since the communication between PPS and the gateway is based on a private protocol, the existing PPS needs to be transformed, and the transformation and adaptation of the PPS service on the existing network is required. When providing services, the interface connection is complex and the workload is heavy. If each PPS manufacturer provides a gateway, CTF needs to send the CCR to the gateway to which the user equipment belongs to initiate online billing, which increases the complexity of communication.

Embodiment 1

[0026] see figure 1 , this embodiment provides an online charging method, including:

[0027] 101: Receive the CCR message sent by the CTF as an event-based or session-based CCR message, and the CCR message includes the specified number corresponding to the type of the CCR message and the number of the user equipment;

[0028] 102: Initiate a simulated smart call to the PPS subscribed to the number of the user equipment according to the received CCR message, and set the called number in the simulated smart call to a specified number corresponding to the type of the CCR message, so that the PPS simulates the According to the specified number, the corresponding online charging is performed on the service of the user equipment.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present invention, the user equipment refers to a terminal on the user side, including but not limited to: a computer, a notebook computer, a mobile phone, and the like. The services generated by the user equipment refer...

Embodiment 2

[0033] see figure 2 , this embodiment provides an online charging method, which is applied to an event-based charging scenario, and specifically includes:

[0034] 201: When the user equipment generates a service request, according to the service type corresponding to the service request is event-based, the CTF sends the CCR message to the access proxy device to apply for charging the service generated by the user equipment.

[0035]In this embodiment, the service generated by the user equipment usually refers to an event-based service, and the duration and flow of the service are not considered during charging, but are charged according to the number of times the service is provided. The business includes but is not limited to: downloading files, sending text messages, and so on. The access proxy device is usually a device of a content provider, such as a certain website.

[0036] Among them, there is a field in the CCR message called CC-Request-Type, which is used to iden...

Embodiment 3

[0057] see image 3 , this embodiment provides an online charging method, which is applied to an event-based charging scenario. Its process is similar to that of Embodiment 2, the difference is that the time when the access proxy device returns a CCA message is different. The method specifically includes:

[0058] 301-306: the same as 201-206, no more details here.

[0059] 307: After the access proxy device waits for N seconds, the simulated SSP reports the ACR message to the PPS.

[0060] 308: After receiving the ACR message, the PPS performs online pay-per-view charging according to the information therein and the pre-configured charging rules.

[0061] 309: The access proxy device reports the ERB message to the PPS.

[0062] 310: After receiving the ERB message, the PPS sends an RC message to the access proxy device, and releases related resources.

[0063] 311: After receiving the RC message, the access proxy device returns an event-based CCA message to the CTF, notify...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an on-line charging method, access proxy equipment and a system, and belongs to the technical field of communication. The method comprises the following steps of: receiving a credit control request (CCR) message in a type based on an event or a session, which is transmitted by a charging trigger function (CTF), wherein the CCR message comprises a specified number corresponding to the type of the CCR message and a number of user equipment; and initiating an analog intelligent call to a prepaid service (PPS) subscribed by the user equipment number according to the received CCR message, and setting a called number in the analog intelligent call as the specified number corresponding to the type of the CCR message, so the PPS processes the analog intelligent call, and implements corresponding on-line charging on the service of the user equipment according to the specified number. The access proxy equipment comprises a reception module and a processing module. The system comprises the access proxy equipment and the PPS subscribed by the user equipment. By the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the diameter credit control (DCC) charging complexity and cost, and the communication complexity are greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to an online charging method, access agent equipment and system. Background technique [0002] New networks such as 3G (3rd Generation, third generation) mobile communications and IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem, IP Multimedia System) are more and more widely deployed around the world, and the business support systems of telecom operators are also constantly being updated and changed. . Online charging (Online Charging) is a charging mechanism in which charging information can affect service provision in real time and account balance can be updated in real time. It is an important means to support business development. Currently, in the circuit domain, the online charging of the voice service is realized through the intelligent network, and in the packet domain, the online charging of the data service is realized through the direct connection between the charging system...
