Border user charging method and device

Abstract

The present invention discloses a border user charging method and device. The method comprises the following steps: receiving location information of a visited user of a suspected border user sent byan international roaming signaling gateway; judging whether the pre-established visited user location information base contains the location information of the visited user of the suspected border user; if it is judged that the pre-established visited user location information base contains the location information of the visited user of the suspected border user, determining that the suspected border user is a border user. The border user charging method and device in the present application determines whether the suspected border user is a border user by receiving the data sent by the international roaming signaling gateway and judging whether the pre-established visited user location information base contains the location information of the visited user of the suspected border user. Further, it is determined whether the user is truly in an international roaming state, and a reliable charging basis is provided for a background charging system, which can effectively reduce user complaints.

Description

technical field [0001] The application belongs to the field of data processing, and in particular relates to a charging method and device for border users. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in mobile communication systems, if the signal strength of two base stations changes alternately in a certain area, the mobile phone will switch back and forth between the two base stations, resulting in the so-called "ping-pong effect". That is, the user registers to base station A for a while, and then registers to base station B for a while, and the user with a strong signal will switch to which base station. [0003] If this ping-pong effect only occurs in domestic base stations, it will not have any substantial impact on users except that it will increase the operator's network overhead. However, if the two base stations A and B belong to operators in different countries on both sides of the border, and the user happens to have a call\text message\data service when regi...

Problems solved by technology

[0010] This application aims at the problem that the existing users located near the border often register to foreign base stations, thus generating corresponding international roaming bills and causing user complaints, and provides a border user billing method and device
