Method, device and system for indicating PPC user

Abstract

The invention provides a method, a device and a system for indicating a PCC (policy and charging control) user, and relates to the field of mobile communication. Through subscription information of a user, the method, the device and the system indicate the PCC user, making determination of the PCC user more reasonable, control granularity of the PCC user can be extended to the user or a user group, and when a user type changes, influence on a whole network is reduced. The method comprises: receiving information carrying indicating identification, the indicating identification being used to indicate whether a user to access is the PCC user; and establishing an IP connectivity access network (IP-CAN) session connection with a policy and charging rule function (PCRF). The method, the device and the system are used to indicate the PCC user.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of mobile communication, in particular to a method, equipment and system for instructing PCC users. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of mobile broadband, a sharp increase in the number of users, and a wide variety of service types, network quality differentiation has gradually become the focus of attention of operators and users. On the one hand, operators urgently need to solve the current situation of increasing revenue without increasing revenue, and identify high-value services and high-value customers; Optimized network quality to improve and ensure user experience. In this case, higher requirements are put forward for the capabilities of packet network in terms of service awareness, control and charging. PCC (Policy And Charging Control, Policy and Charging Control) is the product launched in response to this form. . [0003] In the prior art, in the application scenario of WCD...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the actual operation of the above scheme, not all users are PCC users

Among them, in the case of newly deploying PCC users in a network without PCC architecture, it is necessary to allocate a new APN or domain for this part of the PCC users, and add the relevant configuration of the APN or domain on the GGSN or PDN gateway or PDSN, And configure the APN or domain to use the PCC architecture. In addition, if the user is an ordinary user (non-PCC user) and the ordinary user wants to use the PCC architecture, you need to modify the user's APN or domain name to GGSN Or the PDN gateway or PDSN has been configured to use the APN or domain of the PCC architecture, but this may affect the user's subscription data at the same time. Therefore, in the above-mentioned prior art, the judgment of the PCC user is configured locally through the core network. The control granularity of PCC users is also limited to the user group, and when the user type changes, it can have a great impact on the entire network
