OCS/OFCS refers to the charge system for participating in communication course control, can solve the control of user's real-time credit, prepayment The problems such as taking using data service and real time charging value added business.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of method of area reporting, this method is mainly used in long term evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE) network PCC frameworks in, during user equipment establishes IP-CAN sessions, in each IP- During CAN session establishments, the PCRF in PCC frameworks will have interaction, while the process that starting region reports with MME, thus The executive agent of its interaction flow is PCRF and MME, and is pre-configured at least one monitoring in the MME and region PRA is reported to arrange Table, each PRA lists tool is there are one PRA-ID, and each PRA lists correspond to a monitoring region, wherein each PRA Cell-id/eNodeB-id/TAI information is preserved in list, wherein cell-id refers to the cell ID for needing to monitor; ENodeB-id refers to the mark for the base station for needing to monitor;Tracing area mark (tracking area identification, TAI) refer to the mark in region for needing to monitor.The corresponding institute monitoring section domain pair in need of user equipment is preserved in the PCRF The PRA-ID answered.Wherein, the region of needs monitoring is divided into routine monitoring region and personalized monitoring region, correspondingly, by normal The corresponding PRA-ID in rule monitoring region is stored in the first monitoring list;The corresponding PRA-ID in personalization monitoring region is stored in In second monitoring list.All user equipmenies are all in requisition for the general areas of monitoring, thus all user equipmenies are all corresponding with First monitoring list;But not all user equipment is all corresponding with personalized monitoring region, signified personalized monitoring region It determines according to the demand of user.
As shown in Fig. 2, the method includes:
101:When establishing IP connected reference network IP-CAN sessions for user equipment, MME to strategy with charging regulation work( It can the corresponding PRA-ID of each PRA lists of unit PCRF transmissions.
Since MME is capable of the change in location of real-time perception UE, so in order to realize the monitoring to UE, need to preserve in MME PRA lists, and some regions are required for being monitored to nearly all user equipment, such as the Tian An positioned at Beijing Door, thus the corresponding PRA lists in these regions (this kind of region is known as general areas in text) can be pre-configured in MME and nothing The PRA lists that PCRF generates the user equipment according to the monitoring strategies of user equipment are needed to be handed down to MME again.
In addition, specific to the PRA lists of institute's concrete configuration in some MME, also to be configured according to the physical location where MME PRA lists, such as:Although the Tian'anmen Square is the region that the needs of a routine monitor, user equipment establishes IP-CAN The MME connected when session is located at Daxing District, then the PRA lists configured in the MME may not include that the Tian'anmen Square is corresponding PRA lists.
Correspondingly, during the specific implementation of this step, due to being already configured in MME and user equipment relevant one A or multiple PRA lists, thus MME send establish the related signaling of IP-CAN sessions when, will be with the relevant institute of user equipment There is the PRA-ID that the PRA-ID of PRA lists is sent to PCRF in order to the regions monitored according to monitoring list determination needs PCRF, Its detailed process sees below literary detailed description.
102:PCRF determines at least one target PRA- according to the pre-stored corresponding monitoring list of the user equipment ID, each target PRA-ID correspond to a Target monitoring area.
Wherein, which is divided into the first monitoring list and the second monitoring list.This first monitoring list include mainly The PRA-ID in all conventional areas monitored is needed, such as:The PRA-ID in the regions such as Tian An-men, the Forbidden City, it is however generally that in MME Preserve these PRA-ID;The PRA-ID in the personalized monitoring region for different user devices is preserved in second monitoring list, Not all user equipment is all corresponding with the second monitoring list.For example, the family of certain user is certain user's equipment pair The monitoring region answered, then preserve the PRA-ID in the monitoring region in PCRF.In addition, PCRF is also pre-stored with the second monitoring list The corresponding PRA lists of PRA-ID of middle preservation.
PCRF is monitored first to be wrapped in all PRA-ID that the MME that the PRA-ID neutralizations preserved in list receive is sent The PRA-ID preserved in the monitoring lists of the PRA-ID contained and second is determined as target PRA-ID.The specific implementation process sees below text It is described in detail.
103:PCRF sends at least one target PRA-ID to MME.
104:MME monitors whether the user equipment leaves or enters target PRA- according to all target PRA-ID The corresponding Target monitoring area ID.
Whether MME can enter with real-time perception to UE or have left said one or multiple as mobile management network element Need the region monitored.Such as:When each UE has changed a cell or eNode or TA, MME can be perceived, with more For changing cell, when the cell of user equipment access changes, MME judges that the cell before change and the cell after change are It is no to be located in same PRA lists, if in same list, show that UE is constantly in the corresponding monitoring region of the list In, if in different PRA lists, show the corresponding monitoring of PRA lists where the cell before UE has left change The ID of cell after change is compared with current all lists, obtains the monitoring region of UE entrance, the UE enters by region Monitoring region be change after cell where the corresponding monitoring region of PRA lists.
105:If the user equipment leaves or enters first object monitoring region, described the is sent to PCRF if MME The corresponding PRA-ID in one Target monitoring area, first object monitoring region are that arbitrary target monitors region.
In a kind of realization method of this step, no matter user equipment enters or leaves first object monitoring region, and MME is equal The PRA-ID that first object region is sent to PCRF determines that user equipment is specifically to have left some Target monitoring area by PCRF Still first object monitoring region is entered, particularly, only due to the relationship of user equipment and some Target monitoring area Can be to enter and (being still referred to as to enter in Target monitoring area) or leave, thus PCRF can be sent according to MME is received PRA-ID number determine.According to the negotiation of MME and PCRF, generally by PCRF, receiving PRA-ID is determined as user for the first time Equipment enters first object monitoring region, then it is that user equipment leaves first object monitoring region to receive PRA-ID for the second time, And so on.
PCRF can determine the position of user equipment according to some whether into or out Target monitoring area of user equipment Confidence ceases, and then can change or adjust the corresponding PCC strategies of user equipment;Or by the location information of user equipment open to Third party etc..
The method of area reporting provided in an embodiment of the present invention is provided with one or more PRA lists in advance in MME, often A PRA lists correspond to a monitoring region, and there are one PRA-ID, then MME only to send PRA-ID to PCRF for each PRA lists tool It is determined by PCRF and needs the PRA-ID in the region monitored and be issued to MME, the area whether user equipment enters monitoring is carried out by MME Monitoring result is simultaneously reported to PCRF by the monitoring in domain.With in the prior art since PCRF needs to issue institute's monitoring in need to MME Thus signaling overheads is larger compares for the PRA lists in region, and the present invention can be reduced by being pre-configured with PRA lists in MME The quantity for the PRA lists that PCRF is issued to MME, and then signaling overheads can be reduced.
As the refinement of method shown in Fig. 2, " PCRF is according to the pre-stored corresponding monitoring of the user equipment for step 102 List determines at least one target PRA-ID ", as shown in figure 3, specifically including:
201:The PCRF will be wrapped in all PRA-ID of the corresponding first monitoring list of the user equipment and reception The PRA-ID contained is determined as target PRA-ID.
Wherein, the PRA-ID in routine monitoring region is preserved in the first signified monitoring list.
During the specific implementation of this step, after PCRF has received the PRA-ID of MME transmissions, according to current user equipment All PRA-ID received are compared by corresponding first monitoring list with the PRA-ID preserved in the first monitoring list, The intersection for choosing the two is determined as target PRA-ID.Such as:The PRA-ID that MME is sent includes PRA-ID1 and PRA-ID5, and PCRF according to monitoring strategies obtain the user equipment need the PRA-ID in the conventional area monitored include PRA-ID1, PRA-ID3, PRA-ID1 and PRA-ID5 are then determined as target PRA-ID by PRA-ID4 and PRA-ID5.
In addition, in PCRF other than preserving the first monitoring list comprising the corresponding PRA-ID in routine monitoring region, it can Some corresponding corresponding PRA-ID and PRA lists in personalization monitoring region of user equipment can be also preserved, then the PCRF The corresponding PRA-ID in these personalization monitoring regions is still determined as target PRA-ID.Thus, step 102 " PCRF according to The corresponding monitoring list of the pre-stored user equipment, determines at least one target PRA-ID ", is specially as shown in Figure 4:
301:If preserving the corresponding first monitoring list of the user equipment and the second monitoring list in the PCRF, Then the PCRF supervises the PRA-ID and described second for including in all PRA-ID of the first monitoring list and reception The PRA-ID surveyed in list is determined as target PRA-ID.
Wherein, the corresponding PRA-ID in routine monitoring region, the second monitoring row are preserved in the first monitoring list The corresponding PRA-ID in personalized monitoring region is preserved in table.
Correspondingly, while PCRF sends at least one target PRA-ID to MME, PCRF also needs to send second to MME The corresponding PRA lists of PRA-ID in list are monitored, thus " PCRF sends at least one target PRA- to step 103 to MME ID " is specially:
302:PCRF sends the PRA-ID at least one target PRA-ID and the second monitoring list to MME Corresponding PRA lists.
As the supplement of step 105, judging whether user equipment leaves the work of some Target monitoring area can be by MME It undertakes, specifically, when MME monitors that user equipment enters or leaves some Target monitoring area, MME can report this to PCRF The status indicator of the corresponding PRA-ID in Target monitoring area, the status indicator is for indicating that the user equipment leaves or enters The first object monitors region.Such as:Mark 0 represents user equipment and enters the corresponding monitoring regions PRA-ID;Mark 1 represents User equipment leaves the corresponding monitoring regions PRA-ID.PCRF is according to the state mark of the MME PRA-ID reported the and PRA-ID Knowledge can obtain whether user equipment is located in the corresponding regions the PRA-ID, thus can save the deterministic process of PCRF, The signaling overheads for reducing PCRF, reduces the operating load of PCRF.
It, both can be between signified any two Target monitoring area in the embodiment of the present invention furthermore, it is necessary to supplement Independent mutually that overlapping region is not present, there may also be the regions that partly overlaps.
