Problems solved by technology

However, for offline billing, since the billing information is collected after the session is completed, it will not affect the service process in real time, so there are billing delays and other issues
If offline billing users are not slowed down or disconnected from the network, it may cause high traffic charges for offline billing users, causing user complaints. Therefore, there is an urgent need for offline billing users to slow down or disconnect the network when they reach the volume.
[0004] However, the inventors found that the current 3GPP standard does not define the way to obtain the information on the available traffic quota of offline billing users, so it is impossible to realize the reduction in speed or disconnection of the offline billing users.

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses a method and system for controlling the service capability of an offline charging user. The method comprises that a PCEF device sends a service capability request message to a PCRF device, the message including a user identifier; the PCRF device sends a usage limit acquisition request message to an offline charging system according to a preset period when a user is an offline charging user so as to request the acquisition of the usage limit of the user, receives the feedback usage limit information of the user from the offline charging system, determines the service capability of the service according to the obtained usage limit information of the user, and returns the service capability information of the service of the user to the PCEF device; and the PCEF device performs service capability control of the service of the user based on the service capability information returned by the PCRF device. The usage limit acquisition request message can be a transactional request message. The embodiment of the invention achieves speed reduction or network outage when reaching the number of offline charging users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to communication technology, in particular to a method and a system for controlling service capabilities of off-line billing users. Background technique [0002] At present, in order to effectively supervise the user's traffic charges, all operators have deployed business capabilities such as speed reduction and network disconnection when the amount reaches a certain amount in the Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network, that is, after the user's traffic accumulation reaches a certain threshold, the user will be taken Reduced quality of service (QoS) or direct disconnection measures. To realize this service capability, a Policy And Charging Rules Function (Policy And Charging Rules Function, PCRF) device is required to obtain the user's traffic usage from the charging system. [0003] Currently, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (the 3rd Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP) standard defines the situation that a PCRF device acquir...
