To make the object, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing to this hair Bright each embodiment is explained in detail.However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that In each embodiment of the present invention, in order that reader more fully understands the application and to propose many technologies thin Section.But even if without these ins and outs and many variations based on following embodiment and modification, Each claim of the application technical scheme claimed can also be realized.
Fig. 1 is refer to, is a kind of frame of PCC (strategy and charging control) system under non-roaming situation Structure schematic diagram.As shown in figure 1, when being divided from logical functional entity to the PCC systems, should PCC systems include:SPR (Subscription Profile Repository, user-subscribed database) 11, AF (Application Function, Application Function) 12, PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function, strategy and charging regulation function entity) 13, PCEF (Policy and Charging Enforcement Function, strategy and charging execution function entity) 14, TDF is (real using detection function Body) 15, OCS (Online Charging System, Online Charging System) 16, OFCS (Offline Charging System, off-line accounting system) 17 and BBERF (Bearer Binding and Event Reporting Function, bearing binding and event reporting function entity) 18.
Wherein, information exchange is carried out using interface between above-mentioned each functional entity, such as establishes session etc.. It is Rx interface between PCRF13 and AF12 for example, being Sp interfaces between PCRF13 and SPR11, It is Gxx interfaces between PCRF13 and BBERF18, is Gx interfaces between PCRF13 and PCEF14, It is Sd interfaces between PCRF13 and TDF15, is Sy interfaces between PCRF13 and OCS16, PCEF14 Be Gy interfaces between OCS16, be Gyn interfaces between TDF15 and OCS16, TDF15 with It is Gyn interfaces between OFCS17, is Gz interfaces between OFCS17 and PCEF14.Art technology Personnel are by reference to the description as described in PCC parts in each versions of 3GPP, you can to understand above-mentioned each interface Specific definition, therefore for succinct, the definition of above-mentioned each interface is no longer described in detail herein.
Wherein, in actual applications, above-mentioned each logical functional entity can be deployed in another hardware device, Multiple logical functional entities can be deployed in same hardware device, or and not all logic function reality Body is required.For example, PCEF is generally positioned in the GW (Gate-Way, gateway) 19 of network, Such as the GGSN (Gateway GPRS Support Node, GPRS gateway support node) in GPRS And the PDG (Packet Data Gateway, packet data gateway) in I-WLAN.In another example TDF It can determine whether to dispose as requested.In another example OCS and OFCS can only dispose one of them.
Wherein, AF12 is the access point for providing service application, and network used in these service applications provides Source needs to carry out dynamic policy control.When service surface carries out parameter negotiation, AF12 is by related service Information transmission is to PCRF13, if these business information are tactful consistent with PCRF13, PCRF13 receives the negotiation;Otherwise, PCRF13 refuses the negotiation, and provides simultaneously in feedback The acceptable service parameters of PCRF13.Then, AF12 can return to these parameters UE (User Equipment, user equipment).
Wherein, PCRF13 is PCC core, is responsible for strategic decision-making and the formulation of charging regulation. PCRF13 provides the network control rule based on business data flow, and the control of these networks includes business number According to the monitoring of stream, gate (Gating Control), QoS (Quality of Service, service quality) controls And charging regulation based on data flow etc..The strategy and charging regulation that PCRF13 is formulated are sent to PCEF14 is performed, meanwhile, PCRF13 also needs to ensure that these rules are consistent with the signing information of user. PCRF13 generates strategy to be included but is not limited to the foundation of charging regulation:Obtained from AF12 and business Related information, the user policy, billing control and subscription information obtained from SPR11, and from PCEF14 The information of the network related to carrying obtained.
Wherein, PCEF14 is used for the strategy and charging regulation formulated in loading end execution PCRF13. PCEF14 flows into according to the business datum flow filter in the rule transmitted by PCRF13 to business datum Row monitoring, and then these business data flows are performed with the strategy and charging regulation that PCRF13 is formulated. When carrying is established, the rule that PCEF14 is sent according to PCRF13 carries out QoS mandates, and according to AF12 Execution carry out gate control.The charging regulation sent according to PCRF13, PCEF14 perform corresponding Service data flow charge operates.Wherein, charging can be online charging or offline charging.Such as Fruit is online charging, then PCEF14 needs and OCS16 carries out credit management together.If offline meter Take, then exchange correlation charge information between PCEF14 and OFCS17.
Wherein, BBERF18 function includes bearing binding, the checking of up bearing binding and event Report.When UE is accessed by E-UTRAN, and PMIPv6 is used between S-GW and P-GW During agreement, BBERF18 is located in S-GW.When UE is accessed by trusted non-3 GPP access system When, BBERF18 is located at trusted non-3 GPP access gateway, when UE passes through trustless non-3 gpp Access system access when, BBERF18 be located at ePDG (Evolved Packet Data Gateway, evolution Packet data gateway).Now, PCEF13 no longer performs bearing binding function.
Wherein, TDF15 is responsible for performing the business detection of data flow.It is by the application detected and its data Stream description reports PCRF13.ADCs of the TDF15 according to PCRF13 activation (Application Detection and Control, regular using being monitored and controlled) or pre-configured rule The beginning and end of application is detected, and PCRF13 is notified at the beginning and end of application.TDF15 is simultaneously It is also responsible for the functions such as gate, redirection, bandwidth limitation and the charging of Business Stream.SPR (user contracting datas Storehouse) 11 store the user policy, billing control and subscription information related to charging to policy control.SPR11 Interface between PCRF13 is Sp interfaces.Under the scene using UDR, SPR1 network elements and Sp Interface is substituted by UDR network elements and Ud interfaces.
Wherein, OCS16 carries out the control of user credit and pipe under online charging mode together with PCEF Reason, can be controlled and managed to user credit by Gyn interfaces in the case where disposing TDF15. And policy counter state is passed to by PCRF13 by Sy interfaces.
Wherein, OFCS17 completes the billing operation under offline charging mode together with PCEF14, in portion Also cooperateed with the case of administration TDF15 with TDF15 and complete offline charging function.
It is one PDN of access that PCC frameworks shown in Fig. 1 are realized to UE by each functional entity IP-CAN (the IP Connectivity that (Packet Data Network, packet data network) is established Access Network, IP connections access network) session strategy and charging control.
In the framework shown in Fig. 1, two kinds of policy control modes based on dosage are supported.One of which It is by carrying out dosage collection based on Gx and Sd interfaces, i.e., by PCRF13 according to being based on Gx and Sd interfaces The dosage and other information (such as dosage thresholding) collected carries out strategic decision-making.Another kind is to be based on Gy And Gyn interfaces carry out dosage collection:I.e. by OCS16 according to being collected based on Gy and Gyn interfaces Information carries out dosage statistics, and the parameter that dosage and OCS of the OCS16 based on statistics are pre-set is sentenced The dosage state of disconnected user, the policy counter status information related to dosage of user is connect by Sy Mouth notice PCRF13 carries out strategic decision-making.Wherein, there is no Sd and Gyn when not disposing TDF network elements Interface.
In view of in framework shown in Fig. 1, if the dosage of PCC policy controls is entered based on Gx/Sd interfaces Row collection, now OCS also can gather information by Gy/Gyn interfaces and carry out charging, therefore be based on Gx/Sd The collection that interface is carried out can have the consistency problem that information is gathered with the Gy/Gyn interfaces of charging.This can The additional workload of later maintenance can be introduced.Therefore, can unify to use billing interface (such as Gy/Gyn Interface) dosage of collection carries out policy control.In the 3GPP agreements, it has been specified that PCRF13 Sy interfaces between OCS16.The interface is used for OCS16 to PCRF13 transmission policy counter shapes State information.And the dosage of Gy and Gyn interfaces collection is the important of OCS16 assessment strategy counter status One of information source.
In actual applications, after not supporting that Sy interfaces and OCS are not responsible due to the OCS of part producer Paid service, it can be considered to separate a part and dosage policy-related (noun) function from OCS. The functional network element separated uniformly is responsible for the pre-payment dosage statistics related to the PCC of postpaid service user.
As shown in Fig. 2 it is the PCC controls system for the post payment service that dosage collection is carried out based on Gy interfaces The Organization Chart of system.As shown in Fig. 2 also carry out Gy Interface Controllers for postpaid service user, now Gy Interface is simultaneously not connected to OCS, but connects dosage monitoring device 20.Dosage monitoring device 20 and PCRF13 Between use Sy interfaces.Dosage monitoring device 20 can also accept report form statistics and/or data analysis, with And application function derived from the dosage monitoring such as user's notice.But for prepayment service, due to PCEF Do not support to export Gy and Gyn to OCS and dosage monitoring device simultaneously to same data session with TDF The problem of interface.I.e.:PCEF is not supported for same data session while is supported two Gy interface controls System;TDF is not supported for same data session yet while is supported two Gyn Interface Controllers.This just makes Into independent dosage monitoring device can not be disposed for prepayment service.
In view of this, as shown in figure 3, being the strategy of the present invention and the reality of charging control (PCC) system Apply the configuration diagram of example.Wherein, Fig. 3 and Fig. 1 main distinction is, in Accounting Client (such as PCEF14 and TDF15) dosage monitoring device 20 is introduced between OCS16.Wherein, dosage monitors Gy interfaces are used between device 20 and PCEF14, Gyn interfaces are used between TDF15, with PCRF13 Between use Sy interfaces, Gy and Gyn interfaces are used between OCS16.Wherein, when in the absence of TDF15 When, then Gyn interfaces are correspondingly not present.Wherein, the dosage monitoring device 20 can carry out dosage and add up Judge with dosage corresponding strategies counter status.For example, adopted between dosage monitoring device 20 and PCRF13 Dosage corresponding strategies counter status is interacted with Sy interfaces, wherein Sy interfaces, which can refer in 3GPP, closes In the definition of Sy interfaces, and dosage state is with reference to the definition in 3GPP on Sy interface strategies counters. Wherein, dosage monitoring device 20 can carry out the real time billing between PCEF14/TDF15 and OCS16 The transmission of message, the wherein Real-time charging messages can include:Real-time meter from PCEF14/TDF15 Take request and the real time billing response from OCS16, etc..Therefore, dosage monitoring device 20 can be PCEF (or TDF) transmits Real-time charging messages between OCS, and carries out dosage monitoring, and with PCRF interacts dosage corresponding strategies counter status, without requiring PCEF (or TDF) supports pair Two Gy interfaces (or Gyn interfaces) controls are supported simultaneously in same data session, so as to prop up Hold the independent dosage monitoring to prepayment service.To the tactful of the present invention and counted below based on Fig. 3 framework Expense control method illustrates, it is to be understood that this method can depart from Fig. 3 framework and exist.
As shown in figure 4, it is the strategy and the schematic flow sheet of the embodiment of billing control method of the present invention. It includes:
Step 41:Dosage monitoring device is in network element (such as PCEF or TDF) between Online Charging System Transmit Real-time charging messages.And
Step 42:Dosage monitoring device gathers the dosage traffic contained in the real time billing request, to enter Row dosage monitors.
Wherein, the network element in step 41 can be foregoing PCEF 14 or TDF15.Wherein, should Real-time charging messages are such as being related to real time billing request and real time billing response.Wherein, step 31 is main For transmitting Real-time charging messages.
Wherein, in step 42, the dosage letter contained in dosage monitoring device collection real time billing request Amount can be included with carrying out the operation of dosage monitoring:Dosage monitoring device adds up the history dosage of user, and The dosage state of user, and the plan related to PCRF interaction transmission dosages are judged according to the history dosage Slightly counter and its status information.Wherein, step 42 is mainly used in dosage monitoring.
