Embodiment
For making the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearly understand, hereinafter will be described in detail to embodiments of the invention by reference to the accompanying drawings.It should be noted that, when not conflicting, the embodiment in the application and the feature in embodiment can combination in any mutually.
In the present embodiment, a kind of charging policy method of approval authority of contract signature between net, in the policy control being applied to visited place and charging regulation function entity (V-PCRF), as shown in Figure 3, comprising:
Whether V-PCRF obtains the ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information of subscriber equipment, and be this subscriber equipment mandate roaming local service according to this ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information decision-making.
Concrete mode is see following two embodiments.
Embodiment one:
When user's roaming is visited place access scene, the CAMEL-Subscription-Information be kept in the SPR of ownership place is sent to the V-PCRF of visited network by the H-PCRF of home network by S9 interface, be convenient to mandate and the formulation of strategic decision-making Sum fanction that local service is carried out roaming in visited place, do not need ownership place to carry out license confirmation.When the V-PCRF of visited network is according to the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of ownership place and visited place and capability negotiation, to support and after authorizing roaming local function, visited network independently carries out the formulation of strategic decision-making Sum fanction to such business and issues.Idiographic flow as shown in Figure 4, comprising:
Step S401, set up in the process of IP-CAN session in UE request, the gateway at the PCEF place of visited network receives IP-CAN session establishment request message, carries the PDN mark of the user ID of this UE and the PDN network of request access in this IP-CAN session establishment request message;
Step S402, PCEF send IP-CAN session establishment Indication message to V-PCRF, and in this IP-CAN session establishment Indication message, carry above-mentioned user ID, PDN mark and the IP address (IP Address) for this UE distribution;
When UE accesses visited network, visited network provides ownership place roaming scenarios and roaming local service scheme, supposes that UE have selected roaming local service scheme; Then PCEF sends the instruction of the roaming local service scheme of UE to V-PCRF in above-mentioned IP-CAN session establishment Indication message;
Step S402a ~ 402b, if now V-PCRF is also not mutual with the SPR of visited place, so V-PCRF needs to carry out alternately with this SPR, if preserve the signing document of roaming local service in SPR, then obtains this signing document; Or V-PCRF just carries out alternately with SPR after device start, to obtain this signing document.
According to the user ID received, step S403, V-PCRF judge that this user is as roamer.If V-PCRF is not also for this user sets up S9 session, then V-PCRF sends a request message to set up S9 session to H-PCRF, also a S9 session is set up in request simultaneously, and V-PCRF carries the user ID of this user, PDN mark and IP address etc. in S9 session.If V-PCRF is for this user establishes S9 session, then V-PCRF sends a request message to H-PCRF, to revise S9 session, also a S9 session is set up in request simultaneously, and V-PCRF carries the user ID of this user, PDN mark and IP address etc. in S9 session; Arrange in the support feature (function support) carried in the request message that V-PCRF sends and support roaming local service function, this example of support pattern specifically arranging function does not limit;
Step S404, H-PCRF, according to the user ID received, do not preserve the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of this user if judge, then send signing document request to SPR, and in this signing document request, carry user ID and the PDN mark of this user; Preserve the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of this user if judge, then perform step S406;
Step S405, SPR return the CAMEL-Subscription-Information (returning by signing document response, the CAMEL-Subscription-Information comprising roaming local service) of this user according to the user ID received and PDN mark;
If now ownership place SPR did not also provide the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of above-mentioned UE to H-PCRF, so now SPR will provide to H-PCRF; Or H-PCRF is just mutual to obtain the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of UE with SPR after device start.
Step S406, the request message that H-PCRF sends according to V-PCRF, and the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of the user got, network strategy, UE access information etc. judge the related service of this user as roaming local service, need to send ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information to visited place, undertaken authorizing and formulating distributing policy by visited place;
H-PCRF, according to information such as the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of the user got and roaming agreements, sends the ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information (as roamed the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of local service) of this UE by S9 session establishment or amendment acknowledge message to V-PCRF; Wherein: the support feature, the ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information (such as this user whether contracted the indication information of roaming local service and the details such as possible mandate operator list (list) and mandate business list) that represent this function and support in this message, may be comprised.If H-PCRF does not support to roam local service, then H-PCRF returns corresponding support feature and indicate, represents this service request of refusal, and S9 session/sub-session establishment unsuccessfully;
The information such as the ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information that step S407, V-PCRF storage H-PCRF returns and function support.According to ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information and function support information, whether decision-making authorizes roaming local service.If authorize this business, then in conjunction with the service requesting information of the access information of ownership place and visited place CAMEL-Subscription-Information, UE, beared information that visited place PCEF provides and AF, carry out the formulation of strategic decision-making Sum fanction.Return corresponding response message to PCEF, issue relevant PCC rule to PCEF.Corresponding QoS (Quality of Service, service quality) rule is handed down to BBERF and carries out installation execution;
Step S408, PCEF install and perform PCC strategy, as PCC rule, event trigger etc.PCEF place gateway returns response to above-mentioned UE and sets up IP-CAN session, wherein carries the IP address of distribution;
The IP-CAN session that step S409, UE are set up by step S401-step S408 connects and requested service with the server of roaming local service.The AS of this roaming local service provides roaming local service information to AF, triggers the AF session of setting up itself and PCRF;
Step S410, AF send the request of AF session establishment to V-PCRF, wherein carry roaming local service information;
Step S411, V-PCRF to contract the information that the signing document of roaming local service of ownership place SPR that document, H-PCRF send and other Client provide according to the roaming local service obtained from the SPR of visited place, authorizes the roaming local service that AF provides;
If V-PCRF authorizes successfully, then formulate PCC rule according to business information, user signing contract information, network strategy etc. and be supplied to PCEF;
If V-PCRF refuses to authorize, so V-PCRF returns refuse information to AF, and flow process terminates;
Step S412, V-PCRF return session establishment response message to AF;
Step S413, V-PCRF provide PCC rule to PCEF;
Step S414, PCEF install and after implementation strategy, return acknowledge message to V-PCRF;
Step S415 ~ S416, alternatively, if carrier policy needs the strategic decision-making Sum fanction of ownership place perception visited place, then V-PCRF is by S9 session modification flow process, transmits relevant PCC rule to ownership place H-PCRF perception.
Embodiment two:
Fig. 5 selects the local PGW (Packet Gateway, packet data gateway) of visited network to set up the schematic flow sheet of IP-CAN session in attachment flow when being UE roaming, as shown in Figure 5, comprising:
Step 501: when user starts shooting, initiate attaching process to visited network, namely UE sends Attach Request message by base station to mobile management entity (Mobility Management Entity, referred to as MME);
In this step, non-access layer information (i.e. Attach Request message) sends to MME by base station encapsulates in the initialising subscriber message of S1 interface, and whether self also can be supported that the ability of local access and APN are carried in attachment request and send to MME by base station;
After step 502:MME receives Attach Request message, if the contextual information of this UE or this Attach Request message do not carry out integrity protection or the failure of this Attach Request message integrity protection in discovery network, then authentication is carried out to this user terminal;
Step 503 ~ 504: when locally-attached information is set up in UE request of carrying in attachment request, or the protocol configuration option that UE provides (PCO) and/or APN are through encryption, and so, MME obtains PCO and/or APN information by base station to UE.As the enciphered message in Fig. 5 obtains request and enciphered message acquisition response;
Step 505: if the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of not this UE in MME, then send to HSS (Home Subscriber Server, home subscriber server) and upgrade location request message, the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of this UE of acquisition request.HSS return comprise this roaming local service mark CAMEL-Subscription-Information to MME;
The local policy of the CAMEL-Subscription-Information that step 506:MME returns according to HSS and access zone network, judges whether to be the PGW that this UE selects visited place local network; The signing form of the present invention to the roaming local service in HSS does not limit, and is exemplified as: determine to allow or forbid as this UE selects the PGW of access zone network by the value judging to roam local service mark, if allow, and can the PGW of prioritizing selection access zone network;
MME obtains visited place PGW information by this locality configuration or dns server, and user terminal realizes the access of roaming visited place by this PGW.
If forbid the PGW for this UE selection access zone network, then set up relevant bearer according to prior art and complete attachment flow, this process is technology known in those skilled in the art, is not repeating here.Access zone network is not for this UE provides roaming local service;
Step 507:MME selects a SGW according to prior art, distributes and carries ID accordingly, sends and creates conversation request message to this SGW, wherein carry: the information such as user ID, PGW address, PDN address, APN of UE.Carry ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information (such as roaming local service mark) in this message, to SGW, forward pass is to PGW simultaneously.After SGW receives this request message, send this establishment conversation request message to PGW corresponding to this PDN GW, carry relevant parameter (comprising the roaming local service CAMEL-Subscription-Information of ownership place) in its message received to PGW;
Step 508:PGW initiates IP-CAN conversation establishing flow process (508a ~ 508f).Send conversation establishing request message to visited place PCRF, in message, carry the user ID of UE, PDN mark, and the roaming local service CAMEL-Subscription-Information of ownership place.V-PCRF receives this conversation establishing request message, preserve relevant parameter, in conjunction with relevant CAMEL-Subscription-Information (VSPR and HSS) and visited place strategy, perform following operation: if ownership place support and this business of having contracted, and visited place is supported and can be authorized, then V-PCRF formulates PCC strategy and qos policy according to the service requesting information of AF, the session solicited message of PGW and CAMEL-Subscription-Information, correspondence is issued to PCEF and BBERF of access zone network, and possible ADC (Application Detection and Control, application detection control) rule is to TDF.Concrete handling process 508a ~ 508f, in detail see S402 ~ S407, does not do repeated description here, and wherein main difference is, H-PCRF returns CAMEL-Subscription-Information to V-PCRF alternatively; Relevant CAMEL-Subscription-Information MME based on UE rank has obtained and has sent V-PCRF in HSS, and the business alternatively in ownership SPR or the relevant CAMEL-Subscription-Information of data flow rank return to V-PCRF by H-PCRF;
Otherwise V-PCRF refuses this service authorization, the conversation establishing request of refusal PCEF, the IP-CAN conversation establishing failure of this business;
Step 509:PGW installs the PCC rule performing PCRF and issue; Send and create conversational response message to SGW, and forward to MME;
Step 510:MME sends initial context and sets up request to base station, comprise and send to the attachment of UE to accept message in this request;
Step 511 ~ 512: carry out RRC connection establishment between base station and UE.In this process, the attachment that MME sends is accepted message by RRC request of setting up and sends to UE by base station;
Step 513: base station receives initial context and sets up request, returns initial context to SGW and sets up response;
Step 514 ~ 515:UE returns attachment by base station to MME and completes message;
Step 516:AF triggers local service, and V-PCRF strategic decision-making also issues rule to PCEF installation execution; Concrete detailed description is see S409-416.Wherein the main distinction is V-PCRF strategic decision-making foundation, is different from roaming local service that V-PCRF in S411 obtains from the SPR of visited place and contracts the signing document of roaming local service of ownership place SPR that document and H-PCRF send; In this example, the V-PCRF decision-making foundation roaming local service come from the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of the roaming local service that MME transmits through PCEF and visited place SPR is contracted document, and the roaming local service in the ownership place SPR that sends of possible ownership place H-PCRF is contracted document.If V-PCRF authorizes successfully, then according to business information, user is signing, network strategy etc. is formulated PCC rule and is supplied to PCEF; If V-PCRF refuses to authorize, so V-PCRF returns refuse information to AF.Flow process terminates;
Alternatively, if carrier policy needs the strategic decision-making Sum fanction of ownership place perception visited place, then V-PCRF by S9 session modification flow process, will transmit relevant PCC rule to ownership place H-PCRF perception.
According to operator needs, above embodiment one SPR (Subscription Profile Repository, user signing contract information storehouse) is signing and embodiment two HSS is signing can dispose simultaneously or dispose separately.
Visited place of the present invention is to the acquisition of the CAMEL-Subscription-Information of ownership place above, except being applicable to the roaming local service of visited place mandate, be applicable to the business of the mandate of other visited place and strategic decision-making simultaneously, the patronage data service function, support Fair Use Policy function etc. contracted in such as the support disassociation service function of third party virtual operator, the busy of visited place decision-making or busy district policing feature, visited place, all by the acquisition scheme of ownership place CAMEL-Subscription-Information of the present invention, the strategic decision-making of visited place and the technical support of mandate can be provided.
