In other words, billing system is flexible in scale, flexible linkage with other systems, integration is possible, customer management, application management, usage management, billing management, sales receipt management, outstanding debt management, settlement management, sales status management, code Comprehensive sales support functions such as management and operation management.

In case of using the conventional mobile billing system, the details are generated through the mobile communication terminal and the personal computer (PC), and the generated details are linked with the database (DB) server of the customer information and the necessary information is settled. Networked in a way that works.

However, in the conventional billing system, accurate billing is difficult to measure, SMS (Short Message Service) and data usage history are not output, and when the details on the mobile communication terminal are deleted, the settlement is difficult. In addition, when an error occurs in the customer information database, it is difficult to output immediately.

Therefore, in the conventional billing system, when the details are deleted due to an unknown error after outputting the details in the customer information database, the billing system is not only settled at a unified rate but also takes time to output the details. Inefficient work.

It was necessary to provide services separately from the details of existing mobile carriers. In addition, since the usage fee could not be confirmed in real time, the fee could not be estimated before returning the terminal.

The present invention has been invented in view of the above-described circumstances, and the data can be prevented by storing the usage history by communicating with a real-time server, and also storing the usage history on the mobile communication terminal. The object of the present invention is to provide a wireless communication charging control system that can configure the duplication of storage.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of managing usage fee information on a terminal, the method comprising: storing usage information from a mobile communication terminal and a network server; A usage fee information is determined from a database server according to a rental information setting state; Characterized in that it comprises the step of transmitting and receiving the usage fee information query result from the database server to the mobile communication terminal.

Another specific feature of the present invention, the terminal 10 for storing the usage history of voice, SMS and data is the interface server 20 as the 3G or WiFi server transmission received the usage history through the IP network 40 after executing the application for inquiries ), And the interface server 20 is networked with the database server 30 to store the usage history through the IP network 40, the database server 30 is a terminal transmission of the calculated usage fee The usage fee inquiry is networked with the terminal 10 through 3G or WiFi terminal reception through this IP network.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to have dual data storage by performing terminal storage and storage of the server for use history, and can check the usage fee in real time so that the fee is estimated in advance even before returning the terminal. Since it can be done, the return time after the service is shortened.

The terminal 10 storing the usage history of voice, SMS, and data is networked with the interface server 20 as the 3G or WiFi server transmission is received through the IP network 40 after executing the toll application. 20, the usage history transmission is networked with the database server 30 to store the usage history through the IP network 40, the database server 30 is the terminal transmission of the calculated usage fee 3G or WiFi over the IP network Upon receiving the terminal, the usage fee inquiry is networked with the terminal 10.

The present invention prevents data loss by storing the usage history in communication with a real-time server, and also configures the duplication of data storage by simultaneously storing the usage history on the mobile communication terminal 10. This makes it possible to process the direct charge even if the mobile communication terminal 10 is lost. Even if the details generated by the existing mobile carrier are not separately provided, the details can be extracted from the mobile communication terminal 10 to process the direct charges to the user.

First, when the customer stores the details of voice, SMS, and data generated while using the mobile communication terminal 10 in the terminal 10, and executes a charge inquiry application (Application) to the wireless network (40: 3G, Wifi) The occurrence history is transmitted to the interface server 20.

The interface server 20 receives the occurrence history and distinguishes the use type. The interface server 20 transfers the details to the database server 50 to the wired and wireless network 40. Therefore, the database server 50 stores the details by type.

The usage fee is calculated by applying a discount rate and an additional service fee according to the rental information as the usage history stored in the database server 50. Therefore, the database server 50 calculates the fee and transmits the fee to the mobile communication terminal 10 through the wired and wireless network 40.

Here, the mobile communication terminal and server communication linkage are TCP / IP, UDP, HTTP service, and FTP file transfer method, and the data cable is connected to the USB data cable to download the usage history from the client program.

In the present invention, the transmission and reception timing is transmitted and received when the toll application is executed, and is transmitted and received when the USB data cable is connected.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a wireless communication charging control system of the present invention. The present invention provides a method of managing usage fee information on a terminal, the method comprising: storing usage information from a mobile communication terminal and a network server; The usage fee information is retrieved from the database server based on the rental information setting status. It consists of a step of sending and receiving the usage fee information query result from the database server to the mobile communication terminal.

Related code in the present invention is as follows.

Communication address = "211.123.155.87"

Communication Server Port = 1521

When renting a terminal and using the customer's phone, the terminal usage history (voice, SMS, data) is stored and the charge inquiry is executed. If you do not have a smartphone, check the standard rate on the terminal, if the smartphone is 3G or Wifi wireless communication and use the TCP / IP method of server transmission (terminal, core number and usage history).

At this time, the interface server receives the usage history, analyzes the reception history, and sends the analysis contents to the database server again. The database server calculates the detailed rate (applied discount rate and promotion), transmits the detailed rate to the terminal through TCP / IP method, and receives the detailed rate through the 3G or Wifi wireless communication. Therefore, it ends after checking the fare check.

As described above, according to the present invention, the customer may have a burden on the communication fee because the customer cannot confirm how much the communication fee is used. Usage can be measured by inquiring the usage history in real time.

The present invention can have dual data storage by storing the terminal and the server for the usage history, and can check the usage fee in real time, so that the return fee can be prepared in anticipation of the charge before returning the terminal. Can be shortened.

Although the technical concept of the wireless communication charging control system of the present invention has been described with reference to the accompanying drawings, this is illustrative of the best embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the claims of the present invention.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and imitations can be made without departing from the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
