Problems solved by technology

[0006] from figure 1 and figure 2 From the network architecture shown, it can be seen that the data transmission speed between the user and the data server will be limited by each gateway, especially the bandwidth of the home network (about 10Mbps) is generally still lower than the bandwidth provided by the wireless network (long-term Evolution (LTE, Long Term Evolution) network estimates the maximum download rate of 110Mbps), therefore, the bandwidth that users can enjoy will be limited by the home network

Embodiment 1

[0114] This embodiment provides a charging method, which is applied to edge computing network elements located on the mobile wireless network side, such as Figure 4 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0115] Step 401: receiving a service request from a UE;

[0116] Here, the service request is received through an interface with the BBU of the base station.

[0117] Specifically, the interface is an S1 interface.

[0118] Step 402: When it is determined that there is corresponding content locally cached according to the service request, deliver the corresponding content to the UE; and send the traffic information to the charging network element on the core network side, so that the The billing network element uses the traffic information to generate a bill.

[0119] Here, the traffic information is sent to the charging network element through the Sb interface.

[0120] The determining that the local cache has corresponding content according to the service ...

Embodiment 2

[0174] This embodiment provides a charging method, which is applied to a base station located on the mobile wireless network side, such as Figure 7 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0175] Step 701: Receive a service request from a UE;

[0176] Step 702: When it is determined that there is corresponding content locally cached according to the service request, deliver the corresponding content to the UE; and send traffic information to the P-GW, so that the P-GW uses the Traffic information generates bills.

[0177] Here, the determining that the local cache has corresponding content according to the service request specifically includes:

[0178] Through the DPI technology, it is determined that the local cache has corresponding content.

[0179] In actual application, when it is determined according to the service request that there is no corresponding content cached locally, the base station transparently transmits the service request to the P-GW, and ...

Embodiment 3

[0220] On the basis of Embodiment 1, this embodiment describes the charging process in detail.

[0221] Figure 10 The network architecture of this embodiment is shown. Such as Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, an edge computing network element is added on the mobile wireless network side, and a charging network element is added on the core network side.

[0222] Among them, the edge computing network element has functions such as DPI, routing and forwarding, and traffic statistics; the billing network element has functions such as outputting bills and connecting to BOSS.

[0223] There is an Sb interface between the edge computing network element and the billing network element, and the necessary parameters to be transmitted include but are not limited to: uplink and downlink traffic information, UE identification (ID), UE IP address, etc.; the connection between the edge computing network element and the base station (eNB) The interface between the BBUs is a standa...

Abstract

The invention discloses an accounting method. The accounting method comprises steps that a business request of user equipment (UE) is received by an edge calculation network element disposed on a mobile wireless network side; when corresponding content is cached locally according to the business request, the corresponding content is transmitted to the UE; flow information is transmitted to a charging network element disposed on a core network side. The invention also discloses an accounting system, the edge calculation network element, the accounting network element, a base station, and a packet data network gateway(P-GW).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to wireless communication technology, in particular to a charging method, system and related equipment. Background technique [0002] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventor found that the existing billing scheme has at least the following defects: [0003] With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, users' demands for accessing Internet resources in mobile networks are constantly increasing. Currently, users can use figure 1 and figure 2 Use the network architecture shown to access Internet resources, and implement billing through these two network architectures: [0004] Such as figure 1 As shown, user equipment (UE, User Equipment) must pass multiple nodes such as PTN, Packet Transport Network (PTN, Packet Transport Network) gateways, provincial gateways, etc., to access Internet resources in some Internet (Internet) servers. [0005] Similarly, in the home network (Femto...
