Description

Handle the method for switch metering in a kind of WiMAX network
Technical field
The present invention relates to the mobile communication technology field, handle the method for switch metering in particularly a kind of WiMAX network.
Background technology
WiMAX (World Interoperability for Microwave Access) meaning is global microwave system interoperability, and it mainly is made up of three parts, i.e. travelling carriage (MS); Accessing business network (ASN); Comprise base station (BS) and accessing business network gate (ASN-GW); Connect service network (CSN): comprise prepaid server (PPS), AAA server (AAA Server) or the like logic entity.Communicated to the interface of R6 by R1 between each logic entity, the concrete position of each interface as shown in fig. 1.
The standard of WiMax network still is in the formulation stage, and for charging problem wherein, the charging framework on the WiMAX Forum as shown in Figure 2 now.In its network configuration, main network element has MS, AAAProxy/Client, Visited AAA Server, Home AAA Server, Prepaid Server (PPS), Hot-lining Device (HLD), Hot-lining Application (HLA) etc.SS/MSS is a user terminal fixing and that move, serves as user's role in charging; AAA Client is exactly our said Accounting Client, sends to AAA Proxy after all charge informations are collected; AAA Proxy is an intermediate equipment, mainly plays the charge information processing that will receive and generates a station message recording message, is transmitted to authentication, charging and the authorization server of far-end afterwards; Visited AAA Server is local authentication, charging and authorization server, transparent transmission and forwarding capability entity in the time of as roaming; Home AAA Server is the original initial registration of user or authentication, charging and the authorization server in the former possession of user, and user's CAMEL-Subscription-Information is arranged on it, and user's charging also is to carry out billing operation thereon; Prepaid Server (PPS) is a prepaid server, and it mainly acts on is the online charging that is used to handle the prepaid user, and user's bill has been stored in the inside, and the real-time deduction that carries out to the user after the user reaches the standard grade is operated.
In the present charge system of WiMAX, have and the relevant several signs of chargeing, promptly be used for the R6Connection ID that R6 of identifying user connects, be used for the CorrelationID of a Business Stream of identifying user, the Acct-Session-ID that is used for the identifying user primary charging in the charging, its corresponding a pair of beginning and the charging message that stops, with be used for the same Business Stream correlated identities Acct-Multi-Session-ID of respective user on difference is connected, the business of inquiring user when this sign is convenient to charge.R6Connection ID and Correlation ID are one to one, Acct-Session-ID is an independent sign, only identify primary charging, with the corresponding relation of other signs be one to one or many-one, Acct-Multi-Session-ID is the sign of a minimum variation, and promptly the relation of itself and other sign is the relation of one-to-many.
In the WiMAX network, under situation about switching between accessing business network, mobile station identification and traffic stream identifier are constant, because travelling carriage can only be connected to an accessing business network with a given Business Stream, the charging flow in the accessing business network should be able to guarantee can not repeat to charge in two Business Streams under switch instances.And the way in the existing systems, for example in the charging of CDMA2000, it comes a Business Stream of respective user with CorrelationID, and be connected between its respective base station controller and PDSN, be a Business Stream in its corresponding connection, and in the ticket of back generates, be used for certain session of identifying user.Because CDMA2000 is that PDSN (packet data exchanged node) is as charging point, substantially do not relate to the switching of charging point PDSN in its system, only in roaming condition because the variation that is connected between base station controller and PDSN, its Correlation ID will change in the process of switching.
This situation that Correlation ID will change when charging point switches can not be applied in the WiMAX system.Its reason is that the switching of WiMAX network all can relate to the variation that R6 connects generally speaking, and Correlation ID is connected association with R6, if the mechanism that the variation of adopting existing Correlation ID value to connect with R6 changes, the variation of R6 will certainly cause the value of Correlation ID often to change, will have influence on the statistics of certain session ticket like this, certain session that is about to the user is divided into a plurality of parts, is not easy to the inquiring user operating position.In addition, when regenerating Correlation ID, to carry out new flow process, under situation about switching, can cause the decline of switch speed and efficient like this.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide the method for handling switch metering in a kind of WiMAX network, make user service flow correlated identities Correlation ID in the charging point handoff procedure, remain unchanged, to guarantee the continuity of charging process.
For addressing the above problem, handle the method for switch metering in a kind of WiMAX network provided by the invention, comprising:
The a charging point is created the Business Stream correlated identities at user traffic flow for the user, and described Business Stream correlated identities comprises that being used for the Business Stream correlated identities Correlation ID and/or be used for of same Business Stream of identifying subscriber terminal represents the Business Stream correlated identities Acct-Multi-Session-ID of the same or a plurality of Business Streams of user terminal on difference connects; If charging point switches, the user data log file that then will comprise described Business Stream correlated identities is carried on to switch in the message and sends to purpose base station or purpose Access Network gateway; If charging point is constant, then when switching, user terminal keep described Business Stream correlated identities constant;
B is in charging flow, and accounting server uses described Business Stream correlated identities to charge as user terminal.
If charging point switches between the base station, then handoff procedure comprises handoff preparation phase, switches the stage of recognition or network reentry stage, and in one of them stage, the message that former serving BS will comprise user data log file information sends to the purpose base station.
In handoff preparation phase or switching the stage of recognition, if the purpose base station does not obtain user data log file information, then to reentry the stage at network, the purpose base station initiatively sends a request message to former serving BS so that obtain user data log file information.
If charging point switches between accessing business network gate, then when new data link was set up, the message that former service accessing business network gate will comprise user data log file information sent to the purpose accessing business network gate.
Charge information with the switch metering flow process on charging point is aggregated into a user data log file, extracts the parameter relevant with charging and be reported to accounting server in described file.
Described Acct-Multi-Session-ID is by mobile station identification (MSID) and traffic stream identifier (SFID), and perhaps mobile station identification (MSID) and traffic identifier (Flow ID) directly couple together or generate according to its content.
Described Correlation ID is formed by mobile station identification (MSID) and traffic stream identifier (SFID) or mobile station identification (MSID) and traffic identifier (Flow ID) common combination.Compared with prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
The method of handling switch metering in the WiMAX network of the present invention remains unchanged at Correlation ID and the Acct-Multi-Session-ID that creates that charge in handoff procedure, be about to exist on former base station or the Access Network gateway UDR full content of attribute Correlation ID or base station or the Access Network gateway that partial content copies purpose to, be convenient to use in the subsequent charging flow process value of former attribute Correlation ID, thus can be in the billing operation flow process that keeps finishing under not interruption of the Business Stream situation Business Stream.The present invention can accelerate the carrying out of switching, and reduces the processing of action of chargeing in the handoff procedure, and guarantees the execution of normal charging flow in the handoff procedure.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the specific embodiment of the present invention is elaborated.
Common process step is all arranged in the flow process of all chargings, the user logins, visits and exit network in certain accounting access mode according to network requirement, charging point is initiated charging message automatically according to the subscriber network access situation, and accounting server receives charging message and generates the bill of user's correspondence according to charging message.From this angle, it is transparent chargeing to the user, surfs the Net automatically from the user, to the off line automatic end of user.Generally speaking, charging point is an access server, it automatically the perception user login, action exits network.Accounting server generally is an aaa server.In actual use, whether charge, whether carry out Intermediate Charging ICH,, all run and require to be configured according to network condition, user according to duration, flow, network site or the like charging policy.The client surf the Net charge information complete be recorded in accounting server, accounting system can directly therefrom require to formulate corresponding rate and account form according to operation, and original charge information is converted to the real bill of client.
The present invention provides a scheme that deals with according to different charging points to the charging problem in the whole WiMAX network switching flow.The present invention is directed to MS and in handoff procedure, keep the unbroken billing operation flow process of Business Stream.The present invention does not get rid of simultaneously the parallel possibility of carrying out of a plurality of Business Streams yet, and the present invention also support at a plurality of Business Streams parallel carry out billing operation flow process set forth in the present invention.
Switching the flow process of chargeing based on user terminal comprises: switch metering flow process under the constant situation of charging point and the switch metering flow process under the charging point situation of change.The Correlation ID that handles a method Business Stream of identifying user in the above two kinds of cases of switch metering in the WiMAX network of the present invention all remains unchanged.
Because the present invention is the charging method under the situation that switches at user terminal, so at first the notion of switching is introduced.Fig. 3 is the schematic diagram that travelling carriage (MS) switches in interoperability (WiMAX) network of global microwave system.As shown in Figure 3, MS mobile causes switching to purpose base station (TargetBS), and accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) that purpose base station (Target BS) connected and original accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) are not same, purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) or original ASN-GW will make Interface R3 move to new ASN-GW this moment, then system will set up purpose base station (Target BS) and the new air interface R1 of MS and the R6 interface link of purpose base station (Target BS) and purpose ASN GW, delete the R1 air interface of former base station (BS) and MS simultaneously, and delete the R6 interface of former ASN-GW and former base station (BS) and the Interface R3 between newly-built accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) and the HA (home address).The Interface R4 Signalling exchange of can participating.Interface R3 can not move in the process, promptly still pass through original ASN-GW at the data passes path of this MS, if the purpose base station in the handoff procedure (Target BS) and serving BS (Serving BS) all are connected under the same ASN-GW, then switch the migration that only relates to the R6 connection.For example, when travelling carriage is that BS2 moves to purpose BS when being BS3 from former serving BS broadcasts, the variation of charging point has two kinds of situations, one, charging point is on base station (BS), and the situation that charging point switches between two base stations (BS), two, charging point is on accessing business network gate (ASN-GW), and charging point situation about switching between two accessing business network gates (ASN-GW).Base station (BS) and ASN-GW may exist as charging point.
For first kind of situation is that charging point is on BS and BS situation about switching, in suitable switching message, carry the user data record (UDR) that comprises the Correlation Id that is used to identify certain Business Stream attribute in the handoff procedure, guarantee to switch the back and in the purpose network, also use Correlation Id with originally identical certain Business Stream attribute of sign.This moment, ASN-GW only played the transparent transmission effect in its handoff procedure no matter striding ASN-GW does not still stride ASN-GW.Its process can be to switch to BS3+ASN-GW2+HA from BS2+ASN-GW1+HA, or switches to BS3+ASN-GW2+ASN-GW1+HA from BS2+ASN-GW1+HA.
Fig. 4 is the switch metering flow chart of charging point on base station (BS).As shown in Figure 4, the concrete charging flow step of the switching of charging point on base station (BS) is as described below:
1, the user has triggered switching flow owing to moving of certain reason such as position etc., and on the base station of successful switch in the purpose network;
2, in handoff procedure, serving BS (Serving BS) (charging point) can send to purpose base station (Target BS) as travelling carriage (MS) context together with the UDR information of this travelling carriage (MS) in handoff procedure; Concrete transfer stages can occur in the next stage:
[handoff preparation phase]: in the HO-Request message among the figure and the UDR information of carrying travelling carriage (MS) in the HO-pre-Notification message, comprise Correlation ID and Acct-Multi-Session-ID;
[handover execution stage]: UDR information comprises that Correlation ID and Acct-Multi-Session-ID transmit promptly scene 1 among the figure in HO-Confirm message;
[network is reentried the stage]: purpose base station (Target BS), be after the purpose charging point is received HO-Confirm, find not obtain the UDR information of travelling carriage (MS), perhaps purpose base station (Target BS) (purpose charging point) is behind the RNG_REQ that receives travelling carriage (MS), find also not obtain the UDR information of travelling carriage (MS), purpose base station this moment (Target BS) initiatively sends context request message Context-Request and reaches the UDR information of this travelling carriage (MS) to serving BS (Serving BS) (former charging point), comprises Correlation ID and Acct-Multi-Session-ID i.e. scene 2 and scene 3 among the figure;
3, after finishing the network reentry, the Data Path at this travelling carriage (MS) is set up in purpose base station (Target BS) initialization, charging point on existence and the purpose base station (Target BS) sends Accounting Request (Start) message to AAA simultaneously, starts a new session;
4, set up in the Data Path process in purpose base station (Target BS) initialization simultaneously, can trigger the release flow process of the Data Path of original service side, but after serving BS (Serving BS) is confirmed Data Path dispose procedure, send Accounting Request (Stop) message to AAA simultaneously, stop original session.
The transmission of above message if between base station (BS) interface is arranged, is then undertaken by the interface between base station (BS), if the message transmission between base station (BS) is to be undertaken by one or more ASN-GW, then above message need be transmitted by ASN-GW.In handoff procedure, connect though created new R6 again, because this different R6 connects still at same Business Stream, so the Correlation ID in the charging of this process remains unchanged.
For second kind of situation, it is the situation that charging point is last at accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) and ASN-GW switches, carry the user data record (UDR) that comprises the Correlation Id that is used to identify certain Business Stream attribute in the appropriate message of only between ASN-GW, transmitting in the handoff procedure, remain on and switch the back and in the purpose network, also use CorrelationId with originally identical certain Business Stream attribute of sign.Can switch to BS3+ASN-GW2+HA from BS2+ASN-GW1+HA in this process, perhaps switch to BS3+ASN-GW2+HA from BS3+ASN-GW2+ASN-GW1+HA.
Fig. 5 is the switch metering flow chart of charging point on accessing business network gate (ASN GW).As shown in Figure 5, charging point is on accessing business network gate (ASN-GW), travelling carriage (MS) switches between two base stations (BS) that are connected under two different accessing business network gates (ASN-GW), but the migration of charging point has taken place in the handoff procedure, promptly moved on the new accessing business network gate (ASN-GW).Concrete charging flow step is as described below:
1) user is owing to the switching flow that triggered such as mobile of certain reason such as position, and travelling carriage is to the purpose base station (Target BS) and sent the request message " PathRegistration Request " of setting up data channel (Data Path);
2~3) in handoff procedure, former service accessing business network gate (Serving ASN-GW) (charging point) can send to purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) (charging point) as travelling carriage (MS) context together with the UDR information of this travelling carriage (MS) in handoff procedure; Concrete transfer stages can occur in:
[Data Path sets up scene 1]: purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW), be that the purpose charging point receives that the Data Path of purpose base station (Target BS) sets up directly decision migration Interface R3 of request back, be about to Anchor ASN-GW and move to here, sending Data Path to original Anchor ASN-GW/ charging point sets up request and is with the grappling commit point to be redirected indication attribute (Anchor DPRedirection Ind), after the Data Path that receives accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) sets up request, Anchor ASN-GW (former charging point) sets up the UDR information of carrying travelling carriage (MS) in the request responding message at the Data Path that replies to accessing business network gate (TargetASN-GW), comprise Correlation ID and Acct-Multi-Session-ID, key place is the migration of purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) (new charging point) decision Interface R3 herein.
[Data Path sets up scene 2]: purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW), be after the purpose charging point receives that the Data Path of purpose base station (Target BS) sets up request, the Data Path that sends R4 to original grappling accessing business network gate (Anchor ASN-GW)/charging point sets up request, after the Data Path that receives purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) sets up request, when grappling accessing business network gate (Anchor ASN-GW) (former charging point) decision will be moved Interface R3, can set up the UDR information and the grappling commit point that carry travelling carriage (MS) in the request responding message at the Data Path that replies to purpose accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW) and be redirected indication attribute (Anchor DP Redirection Ind), comprise Correlation ID and Acct-Multi-Session-ID, key place is the migration of grappling accessing business network gate (Anchor ASN-GW) (former charging point) decision Interface R3 herein.
4~5) just to send an Interface R3 migration message to the ASN-GW at the PMIP of grappling client and Authentication Client place be R3_Relocate_Request message to purpose ASN-GW, and this moment might the PMIP client and the ASN-GW at Authentication Client place and to serve ASN-GW be not an entity.Then, under the situation that R3 can move, it is R3_Relocate_Confirm message that the PMIP client of grappling and the ASN-GW at Authentication Client place will respond R3 relocation response message of purpose ASN-GW.
6~9) purpose ASN-GW carries out the MIP registration to home agent (HA) to travelling carriage (MS);
10~13) purpose accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) receives that mobile IP address registration response message is just to respond purpose base station (Target BS) data path response message (Path Registration Response) after the MIP_Registration_Response message, and purpose base station (Target BS) returns the ACK acknowledge message afterwards.Trigger purpose accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) beginning charging flow this moment.
14~16) receiving when purpose accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) also can be to original Anchor ASN-GW/ charging point transmission data path ACK acknowledge message after mobile IP address registration response message is MIP_Registration_Response message, and the charging that has triggered former network this time stops flow process.
Abovely can follow transmitting together with other context of travelling carriage (MS) as contextual charging UDR information exchanging process, this process can not be independent of charging process.Similarly, in handoff procedure, connect, because this different R6 connects still at same Business Stream, so the Correlation ID in the charging of this process remains unchanged though created new R6 again.
The method of processing switch metering is equally applicable to the switch metering flow process under the constant situation of charging point in the WiMAX network of the present invention.Switch metering flow process under the constant situation of charging point comprises following scene:
1, travelling carriage (MS) different intra-sector handoffs in same base station (BS);
2, charging point is on accessing business network gate (ASN-GW), and travelling carriage (MS) switches between two base stations (BS) under the accessing business network gate (ASN-GW);
3, charging point is on accessing business network gate (ASN-GW), travelling carriage (MS) switches between two base stations (BS) that are connected under two different accessing business network gates (ASN-GW), but original ASN-GW still exists as the anchor point of accessing business network gate (Target ASN-GW).
The charge information of concrete switch metering flow process gathers and all handles on charging point to the execution that accounting server reports.Concrete grammar is that the record with the record of the aspect of eating dishes without rice or wine and network side is aggregated into user data record (UDR) file, in this file, extract the relevant parameter of chargeing again, as the flow that charges, charging duration or the like, write and report accounting server in the charging request message, later process has been handled according to common mode with regard to accounting server is arranged, such as waiting a user is identified, come corresponding certain user's charging bill when generating ticket according to identifier with an identifier such as Correlation ID or Acct-Multi-Session ID.In this process, charging point does not change, and in the handoff procedure that rebulids the R6 connection, connects though created new R6 again, but because this different R6 connects still at same Business Stream, so the Correlation ID in this process charging flow remains unchanged.Fig. 6 is the switch metering flow chart under the constant situation of charging point.As shown in Figure 6, the detailed process step of the switch metering flow process under the situation that charging point is constant is as described below:
1) essential information of serving BS (Serving BS) neighbours base station that oneself is known by neighbours' broadcast promptly " NBR-ADV " be handed down to travelling carriage (MS);
2) travelling carriage (MS) sends the base station message of getting off according to serving BS, carries out neighbours' base station scans one time, and outcome record is got off;
3~4) after travelling carriage (MS) has scanned the neighbours base station, just begin to trigger the flow process of switching, and having sent a handoff request message that has in conjunction with own recommendation purpose base station (Target BS) candidate list information after overscanning is that " MOB_MSHO_REQ " gives serving BS (Serving BS), triggers serving BS (Serving BS) beginning switching flow;
5~7) receive that handoff request message that the base station sends over is promptly after " HO_Request " when accessing business network gate (ASN-GW), just the purpose base station (Target BS) of listing in recommending purpose base station (Target BS) candidate list sends and switches pre-notification message (HO_Pre_Notification), the base station of receiving this message is all responded one of accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) and is switched pre-push-notification-answer message, with the state information that goes up oneself.At this moment accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) just sends switching response message to serving BS (Serving BS), and with the state information that goes up each base station;
8~9) receiving the switching response message of serving BS (Serving BS) response when travelling carriage (MS) is " MOB_BSHO_RSP ", have the state information of recommending the purpose candidate base station in its message, purpose base station (Target BS) after the user is switched as oneself according to its base station of state information selection has selected N base station as the purpose base station (Target BS) after switching among this figure.The result that the back will be selected sends to serving BS (Serving BS) by " MOB_HO_Indication " message, and indication discharges serving BS (Serving BS);
10) serving BS (Serving BS) just sends switch acknowledgment message i.e. " HO_Confirm " to accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) subsequently, sets up at user's data path (Data Path) between notice accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) beginning and purpose base station (Target BS);
11~12) accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) has been chosen to be purpose base station N travelling carriage (MS) by switch acknowledgment message " HO_Confirm " notice and will have switched to it down, and send handover cancelling message simultaneously to other candidate's purpose base stations (Target BS), notify its travelling carriage (MS) can not switch to it down;
13) process that the beginning network is reentried between this moment travelling carriage (MS) and selected purpose base station N;
14~15) between selected purpose base station N and accessing business network gate (ASN-GW), set up data channel (Data Path), and discharge former data channel between accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) and serving BS.The step that this step just has just at scene 2 in the constant situation of charging point and scene 3 time is not if scene 1 just has this step;
16) after data channel (Data Path) rebulids, some parameters in the user data record (UDR) have certain variation, and such as Base Station Identification etc., accessing business network gate (ASN-GW) is made the modification of response to user data record (UDR);
17~18) because certain change takes place the parameter that user data writes down in (UDR), trigger the flow process of chargeing and upgrading, with the charge information that produces in changing in upward switching.
Though described the present invention by embodiment, those of ordinary skills know, the present invention has many distortion and variation and do not break away from spirit of the present invention, wish that appended claim comprises these distortion and variation and do not break away from spirit of the present invention.
