If also got access to wholesale price keeping accounts during restriction rule of correspondence as a result according to charging policy, above-mentioned credit control request also needs to have carried this restriction rule that keeps accounts, and the accounting expense can be carried out according to keep accounts restriction rule and wholesale price result in the management of balance center like this.
Embodiment of the invention message accounting sends to the wholesale price result of each charging policy correspondence among the ABM, ABM just can avoid carrying out repeatedly mutual with OCS, carry out charge future according to the wholesale price result, thereby reduced the interacting message of OCS and ABM, alleviate the work of the repeatedly wholesale price of OCS, improved the efficient of chargeing.
The embodiment of the invention discloses the method for another kind of prepaid accounting, comprising:
S201:ABM receives the credit control request that message accounting sends, and described credit control request comprises the wholesale price result of an above charging policy correspondence;
S202:ABM is according to the wholesale price result of a described above charging policy correspondence, and the wholesale price result of each charging policy correspondence is carried out the accounting expense and keep accounts to determining the account book that uses;
S203:ABM sends credit control response to described message accounting, and described credit control response has comprised the traffic carrying capacity of having adjusted.
The traffic carrying capacity of having adjusted is exactly (reservation) detail of deducting fees of corresponding account book of having kept accounts, and it can use GSU (Granted-Service-Unit authorizes the traffic carrying capacity amount) or Cost-Information-Detail to represent.
The object of above-mentioned charging can have multiple, such as the voice call time, and video calling time and flow, online flow etc., the embodiment of the invention does not limit the object of charging.
Embodiment of the invention message accounting sends to the wholesale price result among the ABM, ABM just can with the fewer number of times situation of OCS under, carry out charge future or deduct fees according to the restriction rule that keeps accounts, thereby reduced the interacting message of OCS and ABM, alleviate the work of the repeatedly wholesale price of OCS, improved the efficient of chargeing.
Remaining sum as shown in Figure 3 influences in the application scenarios of rate, user's calling IP phone request 5 minutes, comprised account book type T1 in due order in this user's the account book, give fund account book T2, cash account book T3, wherein use 0.5 yuan/minute of toll rate giving fund account book T2 correspondence, 0.4 yuan/minute of local telephone network rate; 0.3 yuan/minute of the toll rate of use cash account book T2 correspondence, 0.2 yuan/minute of local telephone network rate, each user's account book has priority when carrying out the telephone expenses reservation or deducting fees, in above-mentioned three kinds of users' account book, secondly the priority of account book T1 is the highest in due order, gives the priority of fund account book T2, the F1 of fee item in due order that the priority of cash account book T3 is minimum, obtain respectively by 3 kinds of rate wholesale prices, long-distance call fee item F2, local telephone network fee item F3; The detailed process that the realization expense is accurately reserved is as follows.
S301:SCP sends CCR to OCS and applies for conversation reservation duration, the user ID that has comprised RSU and user's fee among this CCR, because the duration of the reservation of application is 5 minutes, therefore the CC_Time of the RSU that carries among the CCR equals 5 minutes, user ID can be phone number, perhaps short codes, and the identification information that other can the unique identification user's fee.
S302:OCS receives above-mentioned CCR, resolves this CCR, and wholesale price is carried out in this time charging application handle, because the wholesale price strategy finds a plurality of wholesale price rates, OCS carries out wholesale price to a plurality of rates and comprises wholesale price result's CCR to the ABM transmission.
Resolve the CC_Time that gets access to RSU from CCR and equal 5 minutes, and the user ID according to user's fee, inquire the corresponding charging policy of this user ID, confirm that there are 3 kinds of tariff policy in this user, every kind of tariff policy uses different account books, therefore carries out the restriction rule that keeps accounts that this rate correspondence was handled and arranged to wholesale price by every kind of rate respectively.Here charging policy and account book have relation, and be also relevant with concrete charging rate, and account book can corresponding rate, and an account book also can corresponding a plurality of rates.Owing to there is multiple wholesale price strategy, so OCS need be the wholesale price result that each rate generates a correspondence, and converts the wholesale price result to RSU and represent.In addition, can in RSU, indicate the restriction rule that keeps accounts of this rate correspondence.Such as: in the present embodiment, there are three kinds of wholesale price strategies, relate to 3 account books, 5 kinds of different rates, so OC had corresponding 5 RSU, in addition, can also carry the fee item type of each RSU correspondence among the CCR.Detailed process is as follows.
The duration of account book type T1 and charging is irrelevant in due order, in 1 session, only need to reserve or deduct fees 1 time just passable, therefore can obtain CC-Time=5 minute of RSU1, fee item is F1=1 time in due order, and the restrictive rule that keeps accounts that RSU1 can be set, such as: pay-per-use can be used free resource, the pattern of its charging is pay-per-use, the account book type of using of chargeing is necessary for T1, other follow-up fee item (referring to fee item F2 or fee item F3) need not to keep accounts, be that each value of field is respectively among the Pay_Limit_Rule of RSU1: Pay-Limit-Resource=1 (can use free resource), Pay-Limit-Resource-ChargeMode=1 (pay-per-use), Pay-Limit-Specify-AccountTypeID=T1 (account book type in due order), Pay-Limit-Specif-AccountTypeAction=1 (follow-up expense does not keep accounts).
Because IP phone may produce two kinds of fee item simultaneously: local telephone network fee item and long-distance call fee item.Give account book type T2 and have this two kinds of rates and use, be respectively 0.5 yuan/minute of toll rate, 0.4 yuan/minute of local telephone network rate, therefore calculate 5 minutes long-distance call fee item F2 and the local telephone network fee item F3 of application respectively, obtaining the wholesale price result is: the CC-Time=5 of RSU2 minute, 0.5 yuan/minute=2.5 yuan of F2=5 minute * of long-distance call fee item, the CC-Time=5 of RSU3 minute, 0.4 yuan/minute=2 yuan of F3=5 minute * of local telephone network fee item.And the restrictive rule that keeps accounts that this RSU2 and RSU3 are set is given the fund account book for using, because RSU2 and RSU3's is same account book type, therefore its restrictive rule that keeps accounts is identical, such as: this charging can be used free resource, the pattern of its charging is accurately to charge, that is: charge according to duration or flow; Charging account book type is T2, follow-up same-cost item (referring to fee item F2 or fee item F3) does not keep accounts, its rule that keeps accounts comprises: can use free resource, charge mode is accurate charging, here be to charge according to duration, and charging account book type is T2, follow-up fee item need not to keep accounts, be that each value of field is respectively among the Pay_Limit_Rule of RSU2 and RSU3: Pay-Limit-Resource=1 (can use free resource), Pay-Limit-Resource-ChargeMode=0 (accurately chargeing), Pay-Limit-Specify-AccountTypeID=T2 (giving the account book type), Pay-Limit-Specif-AccountTypeAction=2 (follow-up same-cost item does not keep accounts).
Use cash account book type T3 also to have two kinds of rates, be respectively 0.3 yuan/minute of toll rate, 0.2 yuan/minute of local telephone network rate, therefore calculate 5 minutes long-distance call fee item F2 and the local telephone network fee item F3 of application respectively, obtaining the wholesale price result is: the CC-Time=5 of RSU4 minute, 0.3 yuan/minute=1.5 yuan of F2=5 minute * of long-distance call fee item, the CC-Time=5 of RSU5 minute, 0.2 yuan/minute=1 yuan of F3=5 minute * of local telephone network fee item.Since the cash account book that RSU4 and RSU5 use, and generally speaking, the rule that keeps accounts of cash account book is unrestricted, and therefore, RSU4 and RSU5 do not arrange the restriction rule that keeps accounts.Certainly, also can set certain rule to the cash account book according to demand.
After the OCS wholesale price success, obtained 5 different wholesale price results, i.e. 5 different expense sections comprise: keep accounts in due order wholesale price result's the expense section of account book of the use relevant with RSU1; Relevant two the expense sections giving the wholesale price result that the fund account book keeps accounts of using with RSU2 and RSU3, relevant two expense sections using the wholesale price result that the cash account book keeps accounts with RSU4 and RSU5.Therefore OCS has sent CCR to ABM, and this CCR has comprised above-mentioned 5 RSU and the corresponding fee item type of each RSU.
After S303:ABM received the above-mentioned CCR that comprises the restriction rule that keeps accounts, the wholesale price result according to RSU describes reserved cost of the phone call.
After ABM resolves CCR, get access to the restriction rule that keeps accounts of 5 RSU and RSU1 correspondence, the restriction rule that keeps accounts of RSU2 correspondence, the restriction rule that keeps accounts of RSU3 correspondence, according to the restriction rule that keeps accounts of account book prioritization and each account book, determine to use which account book remaining sum to carry out the reservation expense.ABM is according to the account book priority orders relation of preserving in advance, determine to use certain account book by the order from high to low of the priority of each account book respectively, qualified account book is reserved, because the priority order from high to low of the hypothesis of present embodiment is: T1, T2, T3, so process can comprise as follows:
Resolve RSU1, ABM determines whether account book T1 exists remaining sum in due order, if there is remaining sum in account book T1 in due order, then reserves 1 time free resource, issues CC-Time=5 minute of GSU, and this conversation of indication OCS keeps accounts in due order, follow-up can be by 0 rate wholesale price; If because after having stipulated to reserve successfully in the restriction rule that keeps accounts of T1, then follow-up other fee item need not to continue to keep accounts, and namely this is reserved and finishes, and no longer handles follow-up RSU2, RSU3, RSU4, RSU5, return CCA to OCS, and CCA carries the GSU that has reserved.
Resolve RSU1, if account book T1 has not had remaining sum in due order, then do not satisfy the reservation conditions of RSU1, ABM continues to resolve RSU2, obtain the fee item type F2 of RSU2 correspondence and the restriction rule Pay-Limit-Rule that keeps accounts of RSU2, this Pay-Limit-Rule has stipulated: this charging is accurate charging, and this reservation can allow to reserve free resource, specifying and reserving account book is T2, no longer handles other identical F2 fee item behind the reservation fee item F2.This moment, ABM judged that whether give fund account book T2 has enough remaining sums, if remaining sum is arranged, then keeps accounts to T2.Owing to can know according to the Pay-Limit-Rule of front RSU2, after RSU2 finishes dealing with, need not the RSU of disposal cost item F2 correspondence, but still to handle the RSU of other fee item correspondence, therefore keep accounts finish after, ABM also needs to resolve RSU3, (this charging is accurate charging to obtain the restriction rule that keeps accounts of the corresponding fee item type F3 of RSU3 and RSU3, and this reservation can allow to reserve free resource, specifying and reserving account book is T2, no longer handle other identical F3 fee item after reserving fee item F3), this moment, ABM was the amount of money sum of fee item F2 and fee item F3 in the total amount that T2 needs to reserve, namely 4.5 yuan.If the account book remaining sum among the T2 surpasses 4.5 yuan (suppose that T2 has only unified account book, be not subdivided into long-distance call account book and local telephone network account book), then ABM is giving 4.5 yuan of fund account book T2 reservations, and reserving the result is GSU=5 minute; And, know if after reserving successfully that just follow-up same-cost item (being the F2 of RSU4 and the F3 of RSU5) be need not to continue to keep accounts, namely this is reserved successfully, returns CCA to OCS, and CCA carries the GSU that has reserved according to the restriction rule that keeps accounts.If Sorry, your ticket has not enough value for the account book among the T2 4.5 yuan the time, can carry out the reservation expense according to the amount of money of reality, and return actual reservation GSU to OCS.If comprised long-distance call account book and local telephone network account book in the account book of T2, judge respectively then whether the long-distance call account book surpasses 2.5 yuan, and whether the local telephone network account book surpasses 2 yuan, if all surpass, then reserves 2.5 yuan respectively in the long-distance call account book, and the local telephone network account book is reserved 2 yuan; As long as the remaining sum of an account book in long-distance call account book or the local telephone network account book does not satisfy the fee item of application, then can think this RSU application failure to send the USU that authorizes to OCS.
If account book T1 and give fund account book T2 and all do not had remaining sum in due order, ABM continues to handle RSU4 and RSU5, because RSU4 and RSU5 need reserve from the cash account book, ABM judges whether cash account book T3 exists remaining sum, if there is remaining sum, then at this moment in cash account book T3 reserve, at this moment know that the total amount that needs to reserve is the amount of money sum of F2 and F3, the F2 that is the RSU4 correspondence is 1.5 yuan, and the F3 of RSU5 correspondence is 1 yuan, summation is 2.5 yuan, and GSU=5 minute, namely this was reserved successfully.
If in due order account book T1, give fund account book T2 and cash account book T3 all has the enough amount of money, but account book T1 belongs to the eliminating account book that voice are kept accounts in due order, the value that namely has Pay-Limit-ExcludeAccountTypeID, suppose that this value is to represent voice are kept accounts to get rid of at 1 o'clock, this moment is when determining according to account book priority, ABM will find that this speech business can not use this account book T1 in due order, therefore directly begin to determine from giving fund account book T2.
S304:ABM returns CCA (Credit Control Answer, credit control response) to OCS after reserving the cost of the phone call success, and having comprised the duration of call of reserving among this CCA is 5 minutes, and namely the GSU among the CCA equals 5 minutes.
S305:OCS sends to SCP with the CCA that receives, and SCP just can monitor the air time in 5 minutes according to the duration of call of reserving among the CCA like this.
If during the USU that carries among the CCR that SCP sends among the above-mentioned S301, i.e. actual deducting fees carried out in SCP application, and the flow process of deducting fees repeats no more here with the flow process of S301-S305.
In the wholesale price process, because each tariff rule of the user of OCS all carries out wholesale price, and the restriction rule that keeps accounts of setting as a result to each wholesale price, after the wholesale price success, OCS sends to ABM and comprises the wholesale price result and the CCR of the restriction rule that keeps accounts, ABM can disposablely be known the wholesale price result of each account book correspondence and the restriction rule that keeps accounts, therefore ABM can carry out charge future according to the remaining sum situation of each account book of keep accounts restriction rule and user, make ABM and OCS need not repeatedly just can know alternately the corresponding different wholesale price result of each account book, thereby reduced the interacting message of OCS and ABM, improved the efficient of chargeing.
As shown in Figure 4, the embodiment of the invention also provides a kind of message accounting, comprising:
First receiving element 41 is used for the credit control request that receiving front-end equipment sends, and described credit control request comprises application traffic carrying capacity and user ID;
When CCR is used for the application reserved resource, CCR has carried RSU (requested-service-unit, the requested service amount), this RSU has comprised traffic carrying capacity, according to concrete professional different, traffic carrying capacity can have various ways, such as: the time of conversation is reserved in application, the flow that application is reserved, total byte number that application is reserved, the input word joint number that application is reserved, the special metering unit that the output word joint number that application is reserved or other application are reserved.
When CCR is used for deducting fees, CCR has carried USU (Used-service-unit, used traffic carrying capacity), this USU has comprised traffic carrying capacity, according to concrete professional different, traffic carrying capacity can have various ways, such as: the time of having conversed, the flow that has used, the total byte number that has used, the input word joint number of having used, the output word joint number of having used or other the special metering unit that has used.
Charging policy acquiring unit 42 is used for according to user ID, obtains 1 above charging policy of described user ID correspondence;
Wholesale price processing unit 43 is used for according to described each charging policy, described application traffic carrying capacity is carried out wholesale price respectively, and obtain the wholesale price result of each charging policy correspondence;
If there is multiple charging account book in this user, and use different account books can cause the difference of wholesale price rate, then wholesale price processing unit 43 all carries out traffic carrying capacity the wholesale price processing according to the account book that each influences rate, and obtaining wholesale price RSU as a result, the restriction rule that keeps accounts that this RSU correspondence is set at each RSU carries out authorisation process to ABM.
First transmitting element 44 is used for sending the credit control request of carrying the corresponding wholesale price result of described each charging policy to the management of balance center, so that expense is adjusted according to described wholesale price result in described management of balance center.
Further: wholesale price processing unit 43 also comprises: be used for according to described each charging policy described application traffic carrying capacity being carried out wholesale price respectively, and obtain the wholesale price result of each charging policy correspondence and the described wholesale price restriction rule that keeps accounts of correspondence as a result.Embodiment of the invention message accounting with wholesale price result and this wholesale price as a result the restriction rule that keeps accounts of correspondence send among the ABM, ABM just can with the mutual situation seldom time of OCS under, carry out charge future or deduct fees according to the restriction rule that keeps accounts, thereby reduced the interacting message of OCS and ABM, alleviate the work of the repeatedly wholesale price of OCS, improved the efficient of chargeing.
