It should be noted that: represent similar terms in similar label and letter accompanying drawing below, therefore, once be defined in an a certain Xiang Yi accompanying drawing, then do not need to be further discussed it in accompanying drawing subsequently.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the charge rate switch method of one embodiment of the invention.Preferably, the method step of this embodiment can be performed by content charging device.
Step 101, when entering the Intermediate Charging ICH cycle, starts the business use amount of counting user.
Step 102, when arriving predetermined tariff switch point, using the business use amount of described user that counts on as the first business use amount, before rate being switched, mark is associated with described first business use amount, and restarts the business use amount of counting user.
Step 103, at the end of middle metering period, using the business use amount of described user that again counts on as the second business use amount, after rate being switched, mark is associated with described second business use amount.
Step 104, sends charging request message to offline charging ticket device, and before wherein charging request message comprises rate switching, mark, described first business use amount, rate switch rear mark and described second business use amount.
So that offline charging ticket device identifies the rate be associated before utilizing and switching with rate, identify the first business use amount be associated carry out charging process to before rate switches, identify the rate be associated after utilization and rate switch, to switching afterwards with rate, identifying the second business use amount be associated carries out charging process.
Based on the charge rate switch method that the above embodiment of the present invention relates to, all users are not reported at tariff switch point, but the business use amount of recording user before and after tariff switch point, when arriving report condition, recorded business use amount is reported, and by utilizing rate to switch mark, the business use amount before and after tariff switch point is marked.Thus when without the need to significantly transforming network, actual deployment application is carried out to off-line content charging, and effectively alleviate system pressure, meet existing network requirement.
Preferably, if not there is tariff switch point in the Intermediate Charging ICH cycle, then show that rate can not occur in this metering period to be switched, and now only reports the business use amount of adding up in this period.Specific as follows:
If also do not arrive tariff switch point when Intermediate Charging ICH end cycle, then using the business use amount of described user that counts on as the first business use amount, before rate being switched, mark and described first consumption of make suring is associated.And send charging request message to offline charging ticket device, wherein charging request message comprises the front mark of rate switching, described first business use amount, so that offline charging ticket device utilizes to switch with rate front identify the rate be associated, frontly identify the first business use amount be associated to switching with rate and carry out charging process.
Below by a concrete example, the present embodiment is described.
Such as configure user A triggers and once reports for every 30 minutes, and namely the Intermediate Charging ICH cycle is 30 minutes.The tariff switch point preset is 21:00.For user A, within the cycle of 20:10 ~ 20:40, owing to not comprising tariff switch point, the rate therefore within this cycle can't change, and identifies and be associated before the business use amount T now then generated within the cycle of 20:10 ~ 20:40 by user A and rate switch.And identify before this business use amount and rate are switched and report offline charging ticket device, so that offline charging ticket device utilizes and rate switches and frontly identifies the rate be associated, charging process is carried out to business use amount T.Corresponding schematic diagram as shown in Figure 2.
Fig. 3 is the Intermediate Charging ICH cycle of another embodiment of the present invention and the schematic diagram of tariff switch point incidence relation.Wherein, for user A, within the cycle of 20:40 ~ 21:10, owing to comprising tariff switch point 21:00, the rate therefore within this cycle can change.For this reason, the business use amount of user A within this cycle can be divided into two parts.In the interval of 20:40 ~ 21:00, using the business use amount T1 of user A as the business use amount before rate switching.In the interval of 21:00 ~ 21:10, using the business use amount T2 of user A as the business use amount after rate switching.Before switching by rate respectively, mark and the rear mark of rate switching mark business use amount T1 and T2.Business use amount T1, the T2 of user A and relevant rate are switched mark and reports offline charging ticket device, so that offline charging ticket device identifies the rate be associated before utilizing and switching with rate, charging process is carried out to business use amount T1, utilize after switching with rate and identify the rate be associated, charging process is carried out to business use amount T2.Thus the rate achieving off-line content user's fee switches.
In one embodiment, available tariff switching mark marks the business use amount that rate switches front and back.When rate switches mark Rate Change=0, use amount before mark rate switches, when rate switches mark Rate Change=1, use amount after mark rate switches.
