The basic information can include MAC address, memory, CPU, temperature, maximum rate, etc., but in actual application, it is not limited thereto, and can also be other parameters, and the embodiment is not limited.

[0155] Step 205: Based on the basic information of each communication terminal and the corresponding port code, the performance portrait information of each communication terminal is generated, and the performance portrait information is stored in the terminal portrait storage server.

[0156] In this step, the processor constructs the performance portrait information of the communication terminal according to the port code (such as L1-P1) where the communication terminal is located and the basic information (such as MAC address, memory, CPU, temperature, maximum rate, etc.) of the communication terminal, and stores the performance portrait information in the terminal portrait storage server.

[0157] Step 206: Determine the corresponding billing unit price according to the performance portrait information of each communication terminal.

[0158] In this step, the rental billing rules of each communication terminal can be set according to the basic information and loss of each communication terminal, and the billing unit price of each communication terminal can be determined according to the set rental billing rules of each communication terminal and the performance portrait information of each communication terminal. Further, the billing two-dimensional code of each communication terminal can be generated based on the billing unit price of each communication terminal, the billing two-dimensional code of each communication terminal is associated with the corresponding rental billing rules, so that the user can scan the billing two-dimensional code through the mobile terminal to charge. As shown in Figure 3 Figure 3 A billing generation flowchart is provided for the embodiment of the application, which specifically includes:

[0159] Step 301: Set the billing rules for the rental of communication terminals.

[0160] ​In this step, the terminal image billing server sets the billing rules of each communication terminal according to the performance and loss of each communication terminal based on various basic indicators (such as MAC address, memory, CPU, temperature, maximum rate, etc.), such as setting the rule of charging by time unit price, which can be set by the following formula:

[0161] P = RW(M) * P(M) + RW(CPU) * P(CPU) + RW(t) * P(t) + RW(spd) * P(spd) +... spd

[0162] In the above formula, the letters in the parentheses: M represent memory, CPU represents the processor of the communication terminal, t represents temperature, and spd represents the maximum speed supported by the communication terminal.

[0163] The letters outside the parentheses: RW represent weight, and P represents unit price; different weights are set according to different parameters such as memory and CPU performance of different communication terminals.

[0164] For example, the memory is from 8G to 1G, and the unit price is set to 800 yuan-100 yuan; the CPU processing capacity is from high to low, and the unit price can be set to 2000 yuan-500 yuan, etc.

[0165] The operator can uniformly set the weight proportion of different component performance, such as: RW(M) accounts for 20%, RW(CPU) accounts for 30%, RW(t) accounts for 5%, RW(spd) accounts for 40%, and RW(other) accounts for 5%, etc.

[0166] Finally, according to the performance of a certain communication terminal reported by the probe system, the cost of renting a certain communication terminal can be calculated according to the above formula.

[0167] In this embodiment, the rental fee can be settled by time, or multiplied by the flow weight for calculation, which will not be enumerated and described one by one in this embodiment.

[0168] Of course, the billing rules can also be set according to the geographical location of the communication terminal or according to the parameters such as pieces, which will not be enumerated and described one by one in this embodiment.

[0169] Step 302: Construct different billing unit prices according to the performance images of different communication terminals.

[0170] In this step, the terminal image billing server can construct different billing unit prices according to the performance images of different communication terminals, so that the rental user can select to rent different communication terminals according to the actual situation.

[0171] Step 303: Generate a billing two-dimensional code for each communication terminal based on the billing unit price of each communication terminal.​

[0172] Step 304: associating the charging two-dimensional code of each communication terminal with the corresponding rental charging rule, so that the user charges through scanning the charging two-dimensional code by the mobile terminal.

[0173] In order to ensure the collection of rental fees, the system generates corresponding charging association information such as two-dimensional code for each communication terminal, so that the communication terminal rental user can rent the communication terminal through the mobile phone scanning the charging two-dimensional code, bank card association and the like, and realize charging according to time, performance difference and the like.

[0174] In this embodiment, different charging unit prices are generated according to the comprehensive portrait of the communication terminal, and the rental service of different communication terminals with different unit prices is realized, so that the rental and acceptance of the communication terminal are more transparent and reasonable.

[0175] Step 207: generating comprehensive portrait information of each communication terminal according to the charging unit price and performance portrait information of each communication terminal.

[0176] In this step, the terminal portrait generator constructs the comprehensive portrait which can be directly selected by the communication terminal rental user according to the charging unit price and performance portrait information of the communication terminal.

[0177] In the embodiment of the application, different charging unit prices are generated according to the comprehensive portrait of the communication terminal, and the rental function of different communication terminals is realized. The automatic rental and acceptance of the communication terminal are also realized, which not only saves the labor cost of the communication terminal rental and acceptance, but also makes the rental and acceptance of the communication terminal more transparent and reasonable, and improves the multi-dimensional use value of the communication terminal.
