Step 2, PCRF return to gateway control session and set up response message, carry the QoS rule that is handed down to BBERF and the trigger event type that needs BBERF monitoring in this message.
When BBERF detects event, occur, and this event is can mate the trigger event type issuing from PCRF time, and event is reported to PCRF, concrete scheme as shown in Figure 3.
The event that step 1, BBERF detect the trigger event type that issues of coupling PCRF occurs, and determines to carry out event report.
Step 2, BBERF initiate gateway control and QoS rule request message to PCRF, carry event report in this message, also can carry affected QoS rule.
Step 3, PCRF receive that the backward BBERF of request message returns to gateway control and QoS rule is receiveed the response, and wherein can comprise that event report receives the trigger event type that the QoS that responds, upgrades is regular, the needs of renewal are reported etc.
Step 4, PCRF are given information and are forwarded to PCEF the event report of receiving by strategy and charging regulation.
If the event report that PCEF reports is transmitted to BBERF by PCRF, in the following manner.
PCEF and PCRF set up IP-CAN session, PCRF will need the trigger event type of PCEF monitoring send to PCEF, concrete scheme as shown in Figure 4:
Step 1.PCEF determines to set up IP-CAN session, to PCRF, sends IP-CAN session establishment request message.
Step 2.PCRF returns to IP-CAN session establishment response message, carries the PCC rule that is handed down to PCEF and the trigger event type that needs PCEF monitoring in this message.
Step 3. is for the situation of online charging, and PCEF asks credit according to the PCC rule of receiving to OCS.
Step 4.OCS returns to credit information in response message, and in this message, OCS also can issue credit re-authorization event type to PCEF, and indication PCEF is when the event that has coupling credit re-authorization event type occurs, to OCS request credit re-authorization.
When PCEF detects event, occur, and this event is can mate the trigger event type issuing from PCRF time, and event is reported to PCRF, concrete scheme as shown in Figure 5.
The event that step 1.PCEF detects the trigger event type that issues of coupling PCRF occurs, and initiates IP-CAN session modification message carry out event report to PCRF.In this message, carry event report, also can carry affected PCC rule.
Step 2.PCRF returns and receives the response to PCEF, wherein can comprise that event report receives the trigger event type that the PCC that responds, upgrades is regular, the needs of renewal are reported etc.
Step 3. is for the situation of online charging, and PCEF determines whether to OCS request credit according to the PCC Policy Updates situation of receiving.
Step 4.OCS returns to credit information in response message, and in this message, OCS also can issue to PCEF the credit re-authorization event type of renewal, and indication PCEF is when the event that has coupling credit re-authorization event type occurs, to OCS request credit re-authorization.
Step 5.PCRF forwards the event report of receiving to PCEF.
In realizing process of the present invention, inventor finds that in prior art, at least there are the following problems: the mechanism that prior art provides the event that reports to forward between BBERF and PCEF by PCRF, but PCEF is actual, might not need to obtain all event reports of BBERF, PCEF may only need to understand the event report of some type.Same BBERF also not necessarily needs to obtain all event reports of PCEF.But in current mechanism, all BBERF and the event report of PCEF all forward by PCRF, caused a large amount of information redundancies, waste network signal resource, and in the network design of , operator, PCRF node is less, if it is very large to process the amount of information of redundant information, the processing resource that current mechanism has expended PCRF in a large number solves the interacting message problem of BBERF and PCEF.
