Embodiment 1

[0115] Such as Image 6 Shown is the flow chart of eNodeB sending charging information to the offline charging system to realize D2D charging, including the following steps:

[0116] Step 601: The source D2D user sends a D2D communication request to the eNodeB.

[0117] The D2D communication request may use an existing message, such as an RRC message, which carries a D2D communication identifier; or use a special D2D communication message.

[0118] Preferably, the D2D communication request may also carry a D2D service type identifier to indicate the service type of the D2D communication requested by the terminal. Wherein, the service type of the D2D communication includes, for example, service types such as voice, video, or Internet access.

[0119] Step 602: eNodeB sends a D2D communication request to the target D2D user (D-D2D), and receives a D2D communication request response returned by the target D2D user, indicating that the target D2D user agrees to perform D2D commu...

Embodiment 2

[0141] Such as Figure 7 Shown is the flow chart of eNodeB sending charging information to the online charging system to realize D2D charging, including the following steps:

[0142] Steps 701 to 704 are the same as steps 601 to 604, and will not be repeated here.

[0143] Step 705: the eNodeB sends a D2D charging request CCR to the OCS, which carries charging information.

[0144] Wherein, the eNodeB obtains the charging information as described in step 502, which will not be repeated here.

[0145] It should be noted that CCR can be CCR[Event] of immediate charging (IEC, Immediate Event Charging); it can also be event-based unit reservation charging (ECUR, Event Charging with Unit Reservation) or session-based unit reservation For the CCR[Initial] of SCUR (Session Charging with Unit Reservation), which online charging method in IEC / ECUR / SCUR to adopt can be determined by factors such as the type of D2D communication service and / or the operator's strategy.

[0146] If the ...

Embodiment 3

[0156] Such as Figure 8 Shown is the flow chart of the MME sending charging information to the offline charging system to implement D2D charging, including the following steps:

[0157] Step 801: The source D2D user sends a D2D communication request to the eNodeB.

[0158] The D2D communication request may use an existing message, such as an RRC message, which carries a D2D communication identifier; or use a special D2D communication message.

[0159] Preferably, the D2D communication request may also carry a D2D service type identifier to indicate the service type of the D2D communication requested by the terminal. Wherein, the service type of the D2D communication includes, for example, service types such as voice, video, or Internet access.

[0160] Step 802: The eNodeB forwards the D2D communication request to the MME, and the MME judges whether D2D communication is possible, and if yes, receives the D2D communication request response returned by the MME;

[0161] Step...

Abstract

The invention discloses a D2D communication charging method and a system. The method comprises the following steps: a terminal with end-to-end (D2D) communication capability sends a D2D communication request to a base station (eNodeB); the eNodeB acquires corresponding D2D communication charging information in allusion to the D2D communication request and reports the charging information to an online charging system (OCS) or off-line charging system (OFCS); and the OCS or OFCS carries out D2D communication charging processing according to the charging information. According to the invention, D2D communication charging can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of device-to-device (D2D) communication, in particular to a charging method and system for D2D communication. Background technique [0002] In mobile communication, communication may occur between a user equipment (User Equipment, referred to as UE for short) and an application server (Application Server, referred to as AS for short), or between two user equipments. The communication between the two user equipments may be relayed through the AS, or it may be performed through the end-to-end IP data flow between the two user equipments. In this case, even if two UEs communicate through IP under the same base station, the IP data packet must be detoured to the packet data network gateway (Packet Data Network Gateway, referred to as PGW) or gateway GPRS support node ( Gateway GPRS Supporting Node, referred to as GGSN) and then sent to the destination UE, especially when the GGSN / PGW (GGSN or PGW) is lo...
