For example, a fishing boat can still be used for work at rest, but the sea time is short relative to the time of the rest, and if the maritime satellite billing system (Inmarsat) stops serving the satellite communication terminal on the fishing boat when the communication package is suspended, the fishing boat cannot communicate with a land or marine vessel after the sea, so that the suspension of the communication package in the invention does not stop the satellite communication service, and only reduces the cost for maintaining a high-volume communication package when the vessel does not use the satellite communication frequently.
As an embodiment of the present invention, if the request meets the communication package suspension condition, the method further includes calculating an actual communication package cost (FEE) according to the request:
FEE＝RENT*USED/CYCLE+RENT*SUSPEND/CYCLE*DISCOUNT
wherein RENT is communication package fee, USED is actual using time, CYCLE is communication package CYCLE time, SUSPEND is pause time, and DISCOUNT is pause period rate.
As an embodiment of the present invention, said suspending charging of the communication package further comprises extending the communication package in accordance with the request.
And if the time of the communication package is delayed backwards according to the pause time in the request, for example, the communication package time is 6 months, and the pause time at the 3 rd month is 30 days, the communication package time after delay is 6 months +30 days, and the communication data is charged within 30 days from the 3 rd month without enjoying the rate of the communication package.
By the embodiment of the method, the communication package can be flexibly adjusted by a ship user, the maintenance cost of the communication package in the fishing season and the ship maintenance process is reduced, the satellite communication function of the ship cannot be cut off, and the safety of the ship going to the sea and sailing in the time of suspending the communication package is ensured.

Fig. 3 is a specific flowchart of a maritime satellite user communication package suspension method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where a processing procedure in a maritime satellite communication billing server (Inmarsat) in a communication package suspension by a user is described in this diagram, and the method specifically includes:
in step 301, a user terminal sends a request to suspend a communication package.
In this step, the user terminal may include a satellite phone, a notebook computer, or a mobile phone connected to the satellite access device through the relay device and capable of communicating with the maritime satellite through the satellite access device.
The request to pause a communication package may include a user name, a device name, a package number requesting a pause, and a pause time requesting a pause of the package.
In this step, the user terminal sends the request to the maritime satellite billing server through the satellite access device and the maritime satellite, and the maritime satellite billing server stores information of the communication packages, that is, information of various communication packages, including, for example, billing rate, free traffic, communication package name, time length, and the like of the communication packages, and authentication login information such as user names of all users, so as to be able to confirm the communication package information related to the user according to the user login information.
In this step, the maritime satellite billing server parses the information such as the user name, the communication package name, the pause time and the like from the request.
In this step, the communication package ordered by the user and the used time, for example, 45 days, are found by the user name, and the information of the corresponding communication package is found by the communication package name, which may include the time length of the communication package, for example, 6 months of the communication package, the cost of the communication package, and the rate during suspension. The charge rate during the pause period may include a plurality of charge rates, which need to be determined according to the length of the pause period.
In this embodiment, the communication package suspension condition may be an allowed suspension threshold, for example 50 days,
In this step, the pause time in the request may be 30 days, the pause condition is a pause threshold value of 50 days, and it is determined whether the pause time exceeds the threshold value, in this example, the threshold value is not found, and step 306 is entered, otherwise, step 305 is entered.
In step 304, if the pause time in the request exceeds the threshold, the pause time is not allowed, that is, the request for pausing the communication package is rejected, and corresponding information is fed back to the user terminal.
In this step, the billing of the communication package is suspended from the date of requesting the suspension of the communication package, that is, the charge rate flag position of the communication package is first set to be in an unavailable state, for example, the charge rate of the communication package is 0.5, that is, if the billing of the communication data in the range of the communication package is 50% of the standard billing, the flag position of the charge rate is set to be 0, that is, the charge rate is no longer used to bill the communication data of the user terminal, at this time, the user terminal can also communicate through the maritime communication satellite, and the flow rate or the time of the communication data is recorded in the maritime satellite billing server.
The maritime satellite charging server is provided with a table for recording users, communication packages, communication flow or time length and a plurality of charging standards (rates), each charging standard is provided with a corresponding zone bit to indicate which rate is adopted for charging currently, when the zone bit is in an available state, the corresponding charging standard is activated, the communication flow or the time length of the user terminal is charged by adopting the rate, and when the zone bit is in an unavailable state, the corresponding charging standard is invalid. In addition, charging with different rates can be performed according to the length or the duration of the tentative time, for example, the pause time is 30 days, the corresponding rate is 0.8, the pause time is 50 days, the corresponding rate is 0.9, the standard rate is 1, and 0.8, 0.9, and 1 above are all examples.
And 307, prolonging the communication package time according to the pause time.
In this step, the pause time is 30 days, the communication package is 6 months long (assuming 180 days), and the extended communication package extends over 210 days, but the communication package is not available at a rate of 45-75 days.
At step 308, the communications are charged for the time-out period at a standard rate.
In this step, the standard rate flag position in the communication package suspension time period is set to 1, that is, the communication package is in an available state, and at this time, the maritime satellite billing server multiplies the recorded communication flow or duration of the user terminal by the standard rate to perform billing, wherein the standard rate is a value different from the communication package rate.
In this step, the communication package maintenance charge during the suspension period may be calculated by RENT SUSPEND/CYCLE DISCOUNT, where RENT is the communication package charge, CYCLE is the communication package CYCLE time, SUSPEND is the suspension time, and DISCOUNT is the suspension period rate.
The user terminal actual communication package cost (FEE) can be calculated:
FEE＝RENT*USED/CYCLE+RENT*SUSPEND/CYCLE*DISCOUNT
wherein RENT is communication package fee, USED is actual using time, CYCLE is communication package CYCLE time, SUSPEND is pause time, and DISCOUNT is pause period rate.
And step 310, counting the total cost of the user terminal and sending the total cost to the user terminal.
In this step, the used communication package cost, the communication cost in the suspension time period, and the communication package maintenance cost in the suspension time period are counted and sent to the user terminal as the real-time total cost of the user terminal.
By the method and the device in the embodiment of the application, the communication package can be flexibly adjusted by the ship, maintenance cost of the communication package in the fishing season and the ship maintenance process is reduced, the satellite communication function of the ship cannot be cut off, and the safety of sea going navigation of the ship in the time of suspending the communication package is ensured.
The controller may be implemented in any suitable manner, for example, the controller may take the form of, for example, a microprocessor or processor and a computer-readable medium storing computer-readable program code (e.g., software or firmware) executable by the (micro) processor, logic gates, switches, an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a programmable logic controller, and an embedded microcontroller, examples of which include, but are not limited to, the following microcontrollers: ARC 625D, Atmel AT91SAM, Microchip PIC18F26K20, and Silicone Labs C8051F320, the memory controller may also be implemented as part of the control logic for the memory.
