Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.
The embodiment of the invention is used for a scene that a traffic charging system processes the received CCR message. The traffic charging system performs data interaction with the network element side equipment, performs charging processing on the CCR message after receiving the CCR message sent by the network element side equipment, and then generates a CCA message according to a processing result and replies the CCA message to the network element side equipment. The embodiment of the invention classifies the received CCR message, simplifies the steps of unnecessary CCR message processing and the like, and reduces the performance consumption of a flow charging system.
Fig. 1 shows a schematic flow chart of a method for online charging of traffic provided according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps.
110, receiving the CCR message.
The user sends a CCR message from a network element side during using a GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), where the request type of the CCR message includes: the method comprises three types of initial Init request, Update request and termination Term request, wherein the CCR also comprises a service code used by a user.
And 120, identifying the message type of the CCR message based on the service code of the CCR message.
The method for identifying the message type of the CCR message according to the service code carried in the CCR message comprises the following steps: invalid signaling, free flow signaling and normal signaling, and can set a service mark corresponding to the message type. The normal signaling can be further divided into zero-traffic signaling and non-zero-traffic signaling.
The invalid signaling corresponds to the service: the invalid signaling generated by the user in the process of using the GPRS service does not need the service of charging; free flow signaling corresponds to the service: the system refers to content charging services such as a palm business hall, a mobile phone television, an application market service and the like used by a user in the process of using a GPRS service; normal signaling corresponds to the service: the user uses the services which are generated in the GPRS service process and need normal charging.
And 130, executing a charging processing flow for the CCR message according to the message type and the request type of the CCR message.
In the embodiment of the invention, different charging processing flows are executed aiming at different CCR messages, so that after the message type of the CCR message and the request type of the CCR message are determined, the charging processing flow corresponding to the CCR message can be determined, and the CCR message can be processed according to the charging processing flow corresponding to the CCR message.
It should be noted that, in the flow charging system, charging processing flows corresponding to CCR messages of different message types and request types may be preset, and then after determining the message type and the request type of a CCR message, the charging processing flow corresponding to the CCR message may be queried.
And 140, transmitting the CCA message according to the result of the charging processing flow.
After the charging processing flow processing is performed on the CCR message, a CCA message may be generated based on a processing result, and the CCA message may be sent.
It should be noted that, when sending a CCA message, it is generally necessary to perform packet return preprocessing to generate a CCA message, for example, setting field values used in packet return, such as a return code, an authorization amount, and other information.
The embodiment of the invention classifies the received CCR message, executes different charging processing flows according to the difference between the message type and the request type of the CCR message, simplifies the steps of unnecessary processing of the CCR message and the like and simplifies the unnecessary charging flows compared with the prior art in which all messages adopt a unified processing flow, thereby reducing the performance consumption of a flow charging system and saving the performance of an online charging system.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, since different charging processing flows are executed for different CCR messages, the CCR messages to be processed in the traffic charging system are combed. The CCR message may include: the CCR messages corresponding to the invalid signaling, the free traffic signaling, the non-zero traffic signaling, and the zero traffic signaling need to be distinguished. In the embodiment of the invention, the processing flows of CCR messages corresponding to invalid signaling, free flow signaling and zero flow signaling are analyzed, and the analysis results are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1
Based on the analysis result of the processing flow of the corresponding CCR message in the table 1, the embodiment of the invention executes different charging processing flows on different CCR messages, simplifies the online processing logic of the 3 types of signaling, processes the CCR messages in a distinguishing way, and skips unnecessary processing links according to the processing requirements and characteristics of various messages, thereby achieving different optimization targets and reducing the consumption of flow charging performance.
As an alternative embodiment, before step 130, the following steps may be further performed: 150, the message type is invalid signaling, and the CCA message is sent according to the CCR message.
For the CCR message with the message type of invalid signaling, as the CCR message does not influence client data, does not need to be charged and does not need to output a ticket, a plurality of intermediate processing links can be skipped, and a fixed authorization quantity is directly packaged to reply the CCA message.
In this step, firstly, information such as a maximum traffic quota threshold VT, a used quota authorized volume GSU, and the like is set in the packet returning preprocessing based on the CCR message, and then, a CCA message carrying the packet returning preprocessing information is sent.
The embodiment of the invention simplifies the on-line processing process of the invalid signaling, directly processes the CCR message with the message type of the invalid signaling without uniformly processing the CCR message, and skips unnecessary processing links, thereby achieving different optimization targets and reducing the consumption of flow charging performance.
As an alternative embodiment, in the embodiment of the present invention, the step 130 may be further specifically executed as the following step.
131, the message type is free flow signaling and the request type is initial request, and the user data updating process is executed for the CCR message.
And 132, updating the cache information according to the CCR message, wherein the message type is free traffic signaling and the request type is an updating request.
133, the message type is free traffic signaling and the request type is an end request, and a user data access flow and a first fee processing flow are performed for the CCR message.
In the embodiment of the invention, the CCR message type can comprise invalid signaling, free flow signaling and normal signaling, and the request type of the CCR message comprises an Init request, an Update request and a Term request. For the CCR message with invalid signaling, the processing method is already described in step 150, and for the message type being free traffic signaling, the charging processing flow needs to be determined in combination with the request type of the CCR message. In the step, CCR messages belonging to the Init request are screened out according to the request type, and because the CCR messages of the Init request need to access client data from a memory database, and the main task of the Init message is to request to access the client data information through ARQ, the CCR messages of the Init request need to execute a user data access process. Since the CCR message belonging to the Update request is of an Update request type, and the corresponding user data is stored in the cache, the user data does not need to be acquired again from the memory database, and meanwhile, the free flow signaling does not need to perform charging budget operation, so that the message type is free flow signaling and the request type is an Update request, and the cache information is updated according to the CCR message. Since the CCR message belonging to the Term request is of the end request type, which indicates that the corresponding flow charging callback is ended and the fee needs to be settled, and the corresponding user data is stored in the cache, the user data does not need to be re-acquired from the memory database, so that the message type is free flow signaling and the request type is an end request, and a user data access flow and a first fee processing flow are executed on the CCR message.
It should be noted that, if the user data corresponding to the CCR message belonging to the Update request or the Term request is not stored in the cache, at this time, the user data needs to be obtained again from the memory database, that is, the user data access process is executed.
Specifically, the user access process may specifically be: sending request information to a memory database according to the CCR message, wherein the request information is used for requesting user data; receiving response information of the memory, wherein the response information comprises user data; storing the user data in the cache.
The process is to access and store user data from the memory so as to be convenient for the subsequent use of the user data. The CCR message includes user identification information such as a user number, so that a request message is sent to the memory database based on the user identification information, and is used for a requested user profile corresponding to the user identification information, where the request message may include the user identification information. The user profile may include traffic information for the user's subscription, usage information for the traffic, and the like.
For example, the process flow may be: generating a standard charging event according to the CCR message, then generating an ARQ charging event according to the standard charging event, and sending an ARQ request to a memory database; the memory database receives the ARQ request and returns AOQ response; combining the ARQ request and the AOQ response, and recording the interactive information to the standard ticket; judging whether the returned data is legal, if so, writing the data into the client data charging event, and accessing and updating the subsequent program access data from the client data charging event.
In the step, the user data is obtained from the memory database and stored in the cache, so that the user data can be directly accessed from the cache in the subsequent process, the access speed is increased, and the access to the memory data is reduced.
As an optional embodiment, in the embodiment of the present invention, for a CCR message whose message type is normal signaling, the step 130 may be further specifically performed as the following step.
134, judging whether the CCR message is a zero flow message; 135, the CCR message is a zero flow message, and the cache information is updated according to the CCR message; 136, the CCR message is not a zero flow message and the request type is an initial request, and a user data access flow and a second cost processing flow are executed on the CCR message; 137, the CCR message is not a zero flow message and the request type is an update request, and a second cost processing flow is executed on the CCR message; 138, the CCR message is not a zero traffic message and the request type is an end request, and a first cost processing flow is executed on the CCR message.
For the message type being normal signaling, it needs to judge whether the CCR message is a zero flow message. The zero flow message is directly wrapped by using the original reservation, processing flows of pricing approval and account closing, price approval, account closing simulation, account cancellation, back calculation, AOQ interaction and the like are skipped, a ticket is written, the last authorization quantity is taken, and the CCA message is responded, so that the CCR message is the zero flow message, the cache information is updated according to the CCR message, and the cache information is only updated according to the CCR message. And for the CCR message which is not zero flow, distinguishing the charging processing flow according to the request type.
Because CCR messages belonging to the Init request need to access client information from the memory database, and the main task of the Init message is to access the client information through the ARQ request, the CCR messages of the Init request need to execute a user information access process and also need to perform charging budget, namely, a second charging process is executed; the CCR message belonging to the Update request is of an Update request type, and the corresponding user data is stored in a cache, so that the user data does not need to be acquired again in a memory database, and meanwhile, the charging budget also needs to be carried out, namely, a second charging process is executed; the CCR message belonging to the Term request is of an end request type, which indicates that the corresponding flow charging call is ended and the fee is required to be settled, namely, the first charging process is executed, and the corresponding user data is stored in the cache, so that the user data does not need to be acquired again in the memory database. The process described above can be summarized as follows: the CCR message is not a zero flow message and the request type is an initial request, and a user data access flow and a second cost processing flow are executed on the CCR message; the CCR message is not a zero flow message and the request type is an updating request, and a second expense processing flow is executed on the CCR message; and the CCR message is not a zero flow message and the request type is an end request, and a first expense processing flow is executed on the CCR message.
It should be noted that, the manner of determining whether the CCR message is a zero flow message may be determined according to a parameter value in the charging process. In the embodiment of the invention, whether the CCR message is a zero flow message can be judged by the following conditions: the CCR message comprises a sub-service identifier, the sub-service identifier contained in the CCR message is recorded in a flow charging system, the accumulated charging flow of the service corresponding to the sub-service identifier recorded in the flow charging system is 0, and the charging type of the CCR message does not belong to abnormal signaling or free service signaling.
For example, the condition for zero flow determination in the embodiment of the present invention may be expressed as: length (> 0and length (destination charging event, SubSessionId) >0and source charging event) cumulative charging traffic ═ 0and source charging event. Wherein, 7, 8, 9 indicates that the charging type is abnormal signaling and free flow signaling.
Specifically, the first expense treatment process may specifically be: determining the current use flow of the user based on the CCR message; calculating the current flow charge of the user according to the current use flow of the user and the historical use flow of the user; determining a pre-deduction result according to the user balance, the user traffic accumulated amount, the user traffic donation amount and the current traffic cost of the user; and storing the current use flow of the user, the current flow cost of the user and the pre-deduction result to a cache.
The first fee processing flow represents the process that the user needs to charge the flow and deduct the fee after using the flow service. The CCR message comprises the current user traffic, and the user historical use traffic of the user can be obtained from the cached user data according to the user identification information in the CCR message, so that the current user traffic cost can be calculated.
The subscriber may then be pre-billed, including: checking the cumulative quantity conflict, namely judging whether the initial value of the flow cumulative quantity is consistent with the current value of the cumulative quantity, if not, determining the cumulative quantity conflict and returning to the latest cumulative quantity, and if not, determining the cumulative quantity is not conflicted; determining the user flow presentation amount according to the user data, and deducting the user flow presentation amount; deducting fee according to the user flow fee and the user balance, if the fee deduction is successful, determining that the pre-deduction result is successful, and setting a fee deduction result code; if the fee deduction fails, determining that the fee deduction result is fee deduction failure, and returning the latest account book, the latest accumulated amount and the latest free resource. And storing the current use flow of the user, the current flow cost of the user and the pre-deduction result to a cache. In the embodiment of the invention, the initial value of the accumulated amount, the current value of the accumulated amount, the present amount of the user flow and the balance of the user can be obtained from the cached user data.
For example, the processing procedure may specifically be: the billing is carried out according to the reported actual use billing cost, and a bill is generated according to AOQ charging events; calling account preference and real-time account distribution; calling account preference and real-time account distribution; checking the accumulated quantity conflict, comparing the reported initial value of the accumulated quantity with the current value, returning the accumulated quantity conflict if the accumulated quantity conflict is inconsistent, and returning the latest accumulated quantity; deducting the presented amount, namely deducting according to the reported presented amount use value, returning to the presented amount conflict and returning to the latest presented amount if the current surplus is insufficient; calling an account management deduction interface according to the bill generated after the second-time account closing; if the fee deduction is successful, setting a fee deduction result code; if the fee deduction fails, returning the latest account book, the latest accumulated amount and the latest free resource; performing real-time accounting, and warehousing the accounts which are accounted; recording the interactive information to a standard call ticket; and updating the cache information, and writing the bill generated by the account combination and the reported actual usage amount into the local cache sessionstore.
It should be noted that, if the user data corresponding to the CCR message belonging to the Update request or the Term request is not stored in the cache, at this time, the user data needs to be obtained again from the memory database, that is, the user data access process is executed.
Specifically, the second expense treatment process may specifically be: determining the current use flow of the user based on the CCR message; calculating user flow cost according to the current user flow, the historical user flow and the preset reserved flow of the user; determining a flow reservation result according to the user balance and the user flow cost; and storing the current use flow of the user, the flow cost of the user and the pre-deduction result to a cache.
The second charge processing flow represents the process that the user needs to perform reserved flow charging by using flow updating. The CCR message comprises the current user traffic of the traffic, the historical user traffic of the user can be obtained from the cached user data according to the user identification information in the CCR message, and the user traffic cost after the preset reserved traffic is allocated to the user at this time can be calculated by combining the preset reserved traffic. Then comparing the calculated user flow cost with the user balance, and if the user flow cost is greater than the user balance, determining that the flow reservation result is a reservation failure; and if the user flow cost is not more than the balance of the user, determining that the flow reservation result is successful in reservation. The user balance in the embodiment of the invention can be obtained from the user data.
For example, generating a bill according to AOQ charging events according to the reported actual usage bill charges and reserved traffic bill charges for billing; calling account preference and real-time account distribution; calling an account management reserved interface according to a bill generated after the account is closed; if the reservation is successful, setting a reservation result code; if the reservation fails, returning the latest account book; and updating the cache information, and writing the actual usage amount reported by the bill + AOQ generated by the first time of reconciliation into the local cache sessionstore.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, if the reservation result is a reservation failure, the preset reservation traffic may be reduced and the second cost processing procedure may be re-executed to ensure that the reservation result is a reservation success. And if the user data corresponding to the CCR message belonging to the Update request or the Term request is not stored in the cache, the user data needs to be obtained again from the memory database at the moment, namely, the user data access process is executed.
