一种实现灵活周期内限额消费业务的方法和装置 技术领域
本发明涉及智能网通话类业务, 特别涉及一种实现灵活周期内限额消 费业务的方法和装置。 背景技术
随着电信技术的飞速发展, 记账卡呼叫业务得到了越来越广泛的使用, 用户对费用的支付方式有预付费和后付费两种方式。 对于预付费账户, 用 户需要预先往账户里面充入一定的金额后才可使用, 当用户进行呼叫时减 少余额, 当余额为零时用户不能再进行呼叫, 只有用户对其账户进行充值 后才可继续使用。 因此, 用户可以通过为账号充入一定金额来进行话费控 制。 而对于后付费账户, 用户不需要对账户充入金额就可以直接使用, 由 计费系统为用户累积费用, 按一定周期向用户发送清单收取费用。 对于用 户来说, 用户无法有效的控制自己的通讯费用开支, 从而可能产生高额的 通话费用。 对运营商来说, 可能出现用户产生高额的通话费用拒绝支付而 无法收到费用的情况。
釆用限额消费可以解决以上的问题, 对账户设置最大限额, 如果超过 限额数值, 将不允许用户进行呼叫。 但是, 一般的限制消费是限制用户在 一周或一个月的通话费用, 这样有一定的局限性。 发明内容

其中, 在步骤 2 中该限额消费用户的相关信息, 包括限额周期、 消费 额度和计费方案。 可以在系统中预先配置限额方案, 用户可以选择不同的 限额方案、 不同的限额方案的限额周期、 消费额度和计费方案。
具体地, 在步骤 2 中, 如果用户使用的是周限额, 查询用户在本周内 已使用的金额, 然后执行步骤 3; 如果用户使用的是月限额, 查询用户在本 月内已使用的金额,然后执行步骤 3;如果用户使用的是 N日限额( N 30 ), 查询用户前 N-l 日到当日已使用的金额, 然后执行步骤 3。
步骤 3: 根据用户已使用的金额判断是否达到消费限额, 如果未达到, 则接续被叫, 并执行步骤 4; 如果达到, 则释放呼叫。
其中, 在步骤 3 中, 在未达到消费限额时, 进一步包括下列步骤: 判 断用户已使用的金额是否接近消费限额, 如果不接近, 则接续被叫, 并执 行步骤 4; 如果接近, 则向用户发送接近消费限额的提示信息, 接续被叫, 并执行步骤 4。
其中, 根据用户已使用的金额判断是否接近消费限额, 包括下列步骤: 预先设置一个门限值 M, 令 N 费限额 Y -用户已使用的金额 X, 只 有在 N小于或等于门限值 M时, 则表示用户已使用的金额接近消费限额。
步骤 4: 应用服务器在将用户接续到被叫后, 对该通话进行监控, 在用 户达到预先设置的消费限额时释放呼叫。
其中, 在步骤 4 中, 在用户达到预先设置的消费限额之前, 进一步包 括下列步骤:
判断用户已使用的金额是否接近消费限额, 如果不接近, 则继续通话; 如果接近, 则向用户发送接近消费限额的提示信息, 然后在达到预先设置 的消费限额时释放呼叫。
步骤 5: 呼叫结束后更新用户的当天已使用金额。
如图 2所示, 本发明的实现灵活周期内限额消费业务的装置, 包括费 用管理模块和呼叫模块。
其中, 费用管理模块, 用于在收到交换侧转发的限额消费用户呼叫后, 根据用户预先选择的限额消费设置信息判断是否通知呼叫模块接续被叫; 并在呼叫模块将用户接续到被叫后, 对该通话进行监控, 在用户达到预先 设置的消费限额时通知呼叫模块释放呼叫。
其中, 费用管理模块, 首先查询该用户在限额周期内已经使用的金额, 在用户已使用的金额达到消费限额时, 通知呼叫模块释放呼叫, 在未达到 时, 通知呼叫模块接续被叫; 呼叫结束时更新用户当天已使用的金额。
呼叫模块, 用于根据费用管理模块的接续通知消息将用户接续到被叫, 或者根据费用管理模块的释放通知消息释放呼叫。
另外, 上述装置中进一步包括计费接口, 用于在呼叫模块接续到被叫 后, 根据费用管理模块中用户预先选择的限额消费设置信息定时向计费系 统发送划价请求, 并将计费系统返回的用户在当前通话过程中已使用的金 额返回给费用管理模块; 计费系统通过内部的计费模块完成计费划价的各 项操作;

定制了限额消费业务的用户向应用服务器发送业务使用请求, 费用管 理模块查询系统数据库, 判断用户是否已达到消费限额, 如果用户达到消 费限额, 通过费用管理模块中的提示子模块向用户终端发送提示信息, 如 果用户没有达到消费限额, 通过呼叫模块接续被叫, 同时通过计费接口向 计费系统发送划价请求, 费用管理模块的定时处理子模块对通话进行监控, 在通话过程中用户达到消费限额时, 通过费用管理模块的提示子模块向用 户终端发送提示信息, 并释放呼叫。
综上所述, 依照本发明的实现灵活周期内限额消费业务的方法和装置, 可以配置任意多的限额方案, 用户可以选择不同的限额方案, 不同的限额 方案的限额周期、 消费额度和计费方案可配置。 限额周期包括 N日限额(N 30 ), 周限额和月限额, 其中 N 日限额是指限制用户最近的连续 N 日的 最大消费额度。 这样大大提高了限额消费配置的灵活性, 可以满足用户的 各种不同限额需求。 同时系统可以设置一个门限值, 用户到达该门限值时 提醒用户通话费用已经接近消费限额, 用户通话费用到达限额时提醒用户, 禁止用户进行呼叫。
以上是为了使本领域普通技术人员理解本发明, 而对本发明所进行的 详细描述, 但可以想到, 在不脱离本发明的权利要求所涵盖的范围内还可 以做出其它的变化和修改, 这些变化和修改均在本发明的保护范围内。
