Problems solved by technology

[0003] The current OCS system is configured with a fixed step size for the authorized amount issued by the user's business. The fixed step size distribution method requires the user's business flow between the OCS system, the service network element, and the ABM (Account Balance Management, balance management platform) Repeated interaction with authorized authorization, especially in the environment of rapid growth of LTE user data traffic, resulting in an excessive amount of messages exchanged by the OCS system and excessive overhead, which reduces the stability, processing performance and efficiency of the OCS system

Embodiment approach 1

[0033] Embodiment 1: The available resources of the user's current account are the remaining available resources purchased in the user's current account, and the corresponding dynamic step adjustment factor is the resource usage of the same business performed by the user last time. OCS calculates the ratio of the remaining available resources purchased in the user's current account to the resource usage of the same business last time, and determines the weight coefficient N according to the ratio. Multiply the weight coefficient N by the preset resource authorization amount to determine as The resource authorization amount of the user's current business.

[0034] The determination of the weight coefficient N can refer to Table 1.

[0036] Table 1

Embodiment approach 2

[0037] Implementation Mode 2: The available resources of the user's current account are the balance in the user's current account; the corresponding dynamic step adjustment factor is the cost of the user's last same business. OCS calculates the ratio of the balance in the user's current account to the cost of the same business the user performed last time, and determines the weight factor N based on the ratio, and multiplies the weight factor N by the preset resource authorization amount to determine the resource authorization amount of the user's current business.

[0038] The determination of the weight coefficient N can refer to Table 2 or Table 3.

Embodiment approach 3

[0044] Embodiment 3: The available resources of the user's current account are the remaining available resources that have been purchased in the user's current account; and, the OCS calculates and obtains the dynamic step size adjustment factor based on the concurrent business factor and the user credit factor according to predetermined rules. The OCS calculates the ratio between the purchased remaining available resources in the user's current account and the dynamic step adjustment factor, and the ratio is determined as the resource authorization amount for the user's current business.

Abstract

The invention discloses an online charging method, an online charging system and a charging system, and relates to the technical field of mobile communication. The method comprises the steps that the OCS (online charging system) receives a resource authorization request, sent by a business network element, for the current business of a user; the OCS obtains the usable resource of the current account of the user and the corresponding dynamic step adjustment factor; the OCS determines the resource authorization quantity for the current business of the user according to the usable resource of the current account of the user and the corresponding dynamic step adjustment factor, and transmits a resource authorization response to the business network element. According to the invention, the OCS dynamically adjusts the authorization step of the user's business, and comprehensively calculates and obtains the most reasonable authorization quantity according to all factors, thereby reducing the message quantity of interaction between the OCS and the business network element and the ABM, effectively reducing the frequency of communication between the OCS and the business network element and the frequency of communication between the OCS and the ABM, and improving the stability, processing performance and efficiency of the OCS system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication, in particular to an online charging method, an online charging system and a charging system. Background technique [0002] At present, OCS (Online Charging System, online charging system) mainly serves low-end and middle-end users, and controlling user arrears is the core function and value of OCS system. With the development of LTE (Long Term Evolution, long-term evolution) business, more and more high-end users will need to migrate to the OCS system in the future. Because of the permanent online feature of LTE, HB (Hot billing, hot billing) cannot real-time Billing and reminder, user perception is not good. With the introduction of mid-to-high-end users into the OCS system, the requirements for the performance and stability of the OCS system are getting higher and higher. The OCS system needs to consider performance improvement from various dimensions. [0003] The current OCS sy...
