Wherein, said n is the natural number greater than 1, and said flow is represented with the service unit USU that authorizes.
In general; Gateway detects the user service flow amount through DPI, if judge it is that minimum flow is professional, gateway then respective markers is minimum flow (carrying out stored counts corresponding to RG1); If be judged to be professional A; Then the gateway respective markers is the flow (carrying out stored counts corresponding to RG2) of professional A, but DPI can't accomplish 100% accurate identification to professional A, and the flow of understanding some professional A is marked as minimum flow; Therefore in the present embodiment, the PS gateway is in real time to the calculating of examining and making cuts of the flow of the professional A that thinks minimum flow by mistake; In the present embodiment; In order to realize that the PS gateway can be to the calculating of examining and making cuts of detected minimum flow; Need on the PS gateway, pre-configured DPI rule dispose the calculating sign of examining and making cuts to professional A; This is examined and made cuts and calculates sign and be used to make the PS gateway according to the actual use traffic of the above-mentioned algorithm computation minimum flow of examining and making cuts, if there is multiple non-minimum flow professional, then examines and makes cuts accordingly for each non-minimum flow business configuration accordingly and calculates sign;
S203: when charging reports trigger condition to arrive, the PS gateway to OCS send the quota control request message (Credit-Control-Request, CCR), this CCR message is carried the actual use traffic of the user's who calculates among the step S202 minimum flow;
In this step, the PS gateway only reports the minimum flow of RG1 to OCS, and does not report the flow of RG2, and it is pre-configured to realize that this reports step on the PS gateway, to carry out, and makes the PS gateway only report the minimum flow of examining and making cuts and calculating;
The corresponding charging reports trigger condition to comprise: regularly report or preset value arrival.
After S204:OCS receives CCR message, according to the actual use traffic (USU of the minimum flow that receives the user
RG1 is actual) account of carrying out minimum flow reduces;
S205:OCS sends quota control response message (Credit-Control-Answer for the PS gateway; CCA); Wherein this CCA message is carried the follow-up minimum flow quota that the minimum flow RG1 to the user issues; Be used to customer service and on the PS gateway, reserve the minimum flow quota, and issue quota for professional A (RG2);
OCS can further issue follow-up minimum flow quota GSU in CCA message, if the user base flow also has remaining sum, OCS is when user base flow remaining sum is abundant; Still issue part quota (the for example quantity of system configuration); If when remaining sum was not abundant especially, OCS can once issue remaining sum as follow-up quota, when OCS confirms that user base flow remaining sum is insufficient; During the last remaining quota of the disposable user of issuing when issuing the minimum flow quota (last) for said user; Can also in CCA message, carry FUI (the Final-Unit-Indication service unit exhausts indication), this FUI indicates the PS gateway when the minimum flow quota of confirming the user exhausts, the concrete measure that the prevention user base business of taking is proceeded; For example: block user traffic flow; Perhaps deactivate the user, perhaps be redirected to actions such as other service server to user network page browsing Business Stream, FUI also can be the configuration of PS gateway local certainly; The priority that OCS issues FUI is higher than the FUI that the PS gateway local disposes; If FUI is by PS gateway local configuration, when then said OCS issued last minimum flow quota, need indicate this this minimum flow quota was to issue for said user for the last time;
S206: if the PS gateway receives the non-last minimum flow quota that OCS issues; The PS gateway is in the user traffic transmission course; Go out the actual use traffic of user base flow according to the algorithm computation of examining and making cuts; When charging reports trigger condition to reach, report OCS to obtain the follow-up quota that OCS continues to issue; If the PS gateway receives the last minimum flow quota that OCS issues; Then when the last flow quota GSU that the actual use amount of the current user base flow that calculates reaches that the current OCS that obtains issues; Said PS gateway confirms that user's minimum flow amount finishes using; The PS gateway exhausts indication FUI according to service unit, and taking appropriate measures stops said user to proceed the minimum flow business; Particularly; After the minimum flow amount of confirming the user was finished using, the PS gateway can report this user base flow amount incident of finishing using to OCS, simultaneously can also be with the actual use traffic zero clearing of the minimum flow that self calculates for the PS gateway; Further; After user base flow quota exhausted, the PS gateway still calculated the use traffic of customer service, when the actual use traffic USU of the minimum flow that calculates is greater than 0; Carry out the FUI indication, promptly carry out the action that stops the user base business to be proceeded;
After this, the PS gateway all no longer reports the Quota Usage of RG1 and RG2 to give OCS, accomplishes account charging up to the user.
The embodiment of the invention; For the online charging user; After calculating through examining and making cuts detected minimum flow, the PS gateway obtains the actual use amount of user base flow; And the actual use amount of said user's minimum flow reported OCS, OCS can reduce according to the account that the actual use amount of this user's minimum flow is carried out said user's minimum flow, when this kind account charging way has accomplished that real-time online charges to the reasonable charging of user base flow; Be unlikely to cause user's non-minimum flow to be counted minimum flow, improved billing accuracy by mistake.Simultaneously, by the PS gateway whether user base flow amount is exhausted and to monitor, guarantee when user base flow quota exhausts, in time to stop the user to proceed the minimum flow business, safeguarded benefits of operators; The DPI recognition accuracy K% that on the PS gateway, disposes is less than the recognition accuracy of real professional A, in such cases, can guarantee that user's minimum flow can not be leaked a compensation part, can have certain preferentially simultaneously to the user, guarantees user's interests.
