Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communications field, relate in particular to the method for REFER (indication) message related service realization variable billing policy in a kind of next generation network (NGN).
Background technology
Be in the next generation network (NGN) of core with IP Multimedia System (IMS), adopt initial session protocol (SIP) as professional control protocol, every communication service can be cooperated with the application server (AS) by operator's setting in the network by user's intelligent terminal to be finished.
Fig. 1 is that a kind of typical services in the next generation network realizes framework, wherein, application server (AS) (may exist a plurality of, be respectively applied for different business) link to each other with the service-call session control function entity (S-CSCF) of user attaching network by interface, the professional control messages of SIP between user terminal A and the user terminal B (with dashed lines sign) can be flowed through Proxy-Call Session Control Function entity (P-CSCF) in separately the visited network and the service-call session control function entity (S-CSCF) in the home network and application server (according to the kind of customer service, may pass through different application servers), application server can be by the business of various processing to realize enriching to professional control messages.User terminal A and user terminal B utilize the service message exchange and consult the media parameter that both sides supported, between is set up Media Stream and connected (using solid line), and Media Stream is used for transmitting data such as conversation voice packets.
In Session Initiation Protocol, defined a kind of particular message--REFER (indication), its effect is as follows: user A sends REFER message to user B, and the major parameter that carries has Refer-To (indication third party user C) and method (indicating a kind of method); User B initiates some operation requests (adopt the method for method parameter indication, invite the other side, MESSAGE-to send information to the other side as INVITE-) according to this message to user C.
REFER message can be used for realizing calling out business such as switching, meeting.
Fig. 2 is a kind of typical call switching business flow process.For simplicity, the network equipments such as Proxy-Call Session Control Function entity, service-call session control function entity have been omitted among this figure.At this flow process section start, user terminal-A (user A) and user terminal-B (user B) are in the communication process, ((application server-B) all participates in this communication process to the application server of user terminal-A, for separately service object provides professional for application server-A) and the application server of user terminal-B; By user terminal-B user terminal-A is changed to then and calls out hold mode (be that service message can intercommunication, but Media Stream temporarily interrupting); User terminal-B sends a transfer-request (step 1～3) (this transfer-request employing REFER message by application server-A to user terminal-A then, the Refer-To parameter is a user C number, the method parameter is INVITE), after user terminal-A represents to accept this request (step 4～6), user terminal-B sends the on-hook request to user terminal-A, disconnects conversation speech channel (step 7～12) between the two; User terminal-A sends to user terminal-C (user C) and invites request (this transfer-request employing INVITE then, wherein carry the Referred-By parameter and be user B number), between user terminal-A and user terminal-C, set up conversation (step 13～21).
Fig. 3 is a kind of typical convention business flow process.For simplicity, the network equipments such as Proxy-Call Session Control Function entity, service-call session control function entity have been omitted among this figure.Wherein, application server-A also for all users provide the convention business function, can set up speech channel with a plurality of users simultaneously simultaneously except that for user A provides the business, sends to each user behind the audio mixing again.Step P01～P04, user A at first send to the convention business server and invite request, create a conferencing resource, set up conversation simultaneously between user A and convention business server; Step P11～P16, user A sends invitation request (REFER message is adopted in this invitation request, and the Refer-To parameter is the convention business server address, and the method parameter is INVITE) to user B, and user B returns meeting and receives response; Step P21～P27, user B asks according to REFER, sends to the convention business server and invites request, sets up conversation between user B and convention business server, makes user B add this meeting; Step P31～P39 invites the user to add the another kind of method of this meeting, user A sends the invitation request to the convention business server, and (REFER message is still adopted in this invitation request, the Refer-To parameter is a user C number, the method parameter is INVITE), initiatively send the invitation request by the convention business server, between user C and convention business server, set up conversation to user C.
The problem that above flow process exists is: user A (indication side) indication user B (side of being instructed to) carries out a certain operation, but do not have clear and definite who be this operation (as conversing) defrayment.A simple solution is: for all REFER message, unified regulation is by this expense of indication side's payment, perhaps by this expense of the side's of being instructed to payment.
But this unified regulation is inappropriate, can't realize the flexible charging to the related service that adopts REFER message.
For example, for call switching business, a kind of application scenarios is: user A wants to converse with user C, at first dial the directory exchange, the directory exchange sends REFER message to user A, makes user A and user C set up conversation, obviously, the expense of this conversation should be by user A rather than directory exchange payment; Another kind of application scenarios is: user A dials the after-sale service center of certain manufacturer, after after-sale service center reception personnel goes and finds out what's going on, send REFER message to user A, make a certain technical staff (user C) of user A and this manufacturer set up conversation, with further handling problem; If between user A and the after-sale service center is local call, and is toll message between user A and the user C, then long-distance cost is should bear at the after-sale service center at least.
And for example, for convention business, user A invites user B to add meeting, should determine as the case may be by the cost of the phone call between whose payment user B and the convention business server.If user A is the meeting organizer who has wealth and speak louder than others, then can bear the cost of the phone call of user B; If user A only is the meeting liaison man of a warmheartedness, then should not bear the cost of the phone call of user B.
