- a flowchart of a bandwidth notification method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:
- Step 101 The network side detects the bandwidth available to the user and the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user.
- the method for detecting the available bandwidth of the user on the network side may use a static method and a dynamic method:
- the method may include acquiring a package subscribed by the user.
- the maximum bandwidth of the user for example, through the customer's customer subscription record, the user's subscription monthly subscription is 30 yuan, packet traffic is 200M, 1M bandwidth, then the user's current maximum possible bandwidth is 1M, that is, the network side detects the user's available.
- the maximum bandwidth is 1M;
- the network side can also detect the current available bandwidth of the user in real time.
- the software can be configured to send a detection command to the user software when the user needs to detect the current available bandwidth of the user, and the user client software is required to report the user.
- the current bandwidth information or the user client software periodically, or the event-triggered mechanism, reports the current available bandwidth information. Further, it can detect the service bandwidth occupied by each service currently running, or the current service usage. The percentage of total business bandwidth, etc.
- the network side also needs to obtain the bandwidth requirements of the service currently used by the user. Generally, the network side obtains the minimum bandwidth requirement of the service source currently used by the user;
- the data network PCEF entity judges the service according to the media information delivered by the service source, such as the bit rate in the Session Description Protocol (SDP). Bandwidth requirements;
- SDP Session Description Protocol
- the network side can also directly read the bandwidth requirements of each service configured in the system.
- the network side can check the registration information of the service currently used by the user through the charging system, and obtain the bandwidth requirement of the current service used by the user. For example, when the Youku business is released in the BSS (Billing Support System), the minimum bandwidth requirement of the Youku website video service is marked.
- BSS Biting Support System
- the maximum bandwidth requirement of the currently used service of the user may be obtained.
- the media description information delivered by the service source and the bandwidth requirement of each service configured in the system may be determined.
- the current bandwidth requirement of the current service is used to compare with the current network bandwidth of the user.
- the bandwidth requirement of the current service can be determined based on the SDP information sent by the service source. If the SDP information cannot be obtained, the The configuration information is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
- Step 102 The network side compares the available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user.
- the network side compares the two. In general, it is judged whether the current available bandwidth of the user is sufficient relative to the service used by the current user. Specifically, the insufficient bandwidth judgment performed by the network side may be comparing the current available bandwidth of the user with the minimum bandwidth requirement of the currently used service; when the current bandwidth of the user is less than the minimum bandwidth requirement of the service source, the available bandwidth of the user is considered to be insufficient.
- the network side can also compare the current available bandwidth of the user with the maximum bandwidth requirement of the currently used service (that is, the bandwidth requirement that can fully realize the service effect); or, the network side can also perform bandwidth redundancy. Judging, that is, comparing the current available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the currently used service, if the currently available bandwidth is significantly larger than the currently used service bandwidth requirement, or significantly larger than the bandwidth of all services used in the user history (a period of time before detection) If required, it is considered that the available bandwidth of the user is too large, or bandwidth redundancy;
- the network side can obtain the network bandwidth requirements of all services together, and then summarize (sum, or calculate a summary according to some algorithm). Value), and then used to compare with the available bandwidth of the user; it is also possible to summarize only the bandwidth requirements of some services, and then compare it with the available bandwidth of the user; of course, it is also possible to use only a single service with the highest bandwidth requirement.
- the user can compare the available bandwidth.
- the specific comparison manner is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
- the operator or the client may only allocate a certain percentage of network bandwidth to a certain type of service or a certain service, or limit the maximum or proportion of bandwidth occupied by a certain type or a type of service.
- the available bandwidth of the user compared with the current service bandwidth requirement may be the total bandwidth currently available to the user, for example, a percentage of the total bandwidth of the user. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the available bandwidth of the user to be compared with the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user is not limited to the current total bandwidth of the user, but may be the available bandwidth of the current service, and the total bandwidth of the user is fixed.
- Step 103 The network side notifies the user of the bandwidth status according to the comparison result.
- the network side determines that the available bandwidth of the user is insufficient, the user performs a bandwidth status notification.
- the specific notification methods include but are not limited to: SMS (SMS), MMS (MMS), E-mail, ODP (On Device Portal) client.
- SMS SMS
- MMS MMS
- E-mail E-mail
- ODP On Device Portal
- the real-time reminder and the like are not limited herein.
- the method of the embodiment of the present invention implements monitoring the bandwidth satisfaction of the current service of the user from the network side and notifying the user, so that the network side can timely sense the bandwidth usage experience when the user actually uses various services, and notify the user. In many cases, when a user uses certain services, the experience is poor due to network bandwidth problems. Therefore, the method of the embodiment of the present invention can provide a clear understanding of the current service experience due to user bandwidth conditions (such as The use of the package case) and the current service bandwidth requirements do not match, so that appropriate measures can be taken to address and resolve.
- user bandwidth conditions such as The use of
- the network information may be carried in the notification information, the trial information, or the upgrade information, so that the user can further understand how to solve the problem of insufficient bandwidth.
- the embodiment of the present invention further provides a QoE (Quality of Experience) detection method.
- QoE is a concept related to QoS (Quality of Service).
- ITU-T Rec E.800 originally defined QoS as "a comprehensive effect of service performance that determines user satisfaction" and includes a wide range of content.
- QoS is narrowly understood as the performance indicators of the underlying packet data transmission, such as delay, jitter, bandwidth, and bit error.
- Each performance indicator defines a separate KPI (key performance index).
- KPI key performance index
- QoS is not equal to QoE.
- the KPI of common QoS in the network is very good, but the user experience is not good. Because QoE is measured from the perspective of the end user, it is an end-to-end concept.

- Step 201 The network side detects the bandwidth available to the user and the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user.
- Step 202 The network side compares the available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user.
- Step 203 The network side determines the QoE value of the user network according to the comparison result; compares the current available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the currently used service source; and when the current available bandwidth of the user is less than the bandwidth requirement of the service source , it is considered that the user may have poor QoE, and conversely, the user QoE is considered to meet the requirement.
- the steps include:
- Step 204 The network side notifies the user of the QoE situation, and collects feedback information about the QoE situation of the user;
- the network side can:
- the user When the QoE is poor, the user is notified that "the network bandwidth is insufficient to support the current business needs, please click the button to confirm whether it is true", and then, through the user click the Yes or No button, the user's feedback on the QoE situation is collected.
- the user may not need to be notified and request feedback from the user to avoid unnecessary interference to the user.
- the network information may be included in the notification information. Trial or upgrade information, so that users can further understand how to solve the current problem of poor QoE and enhance the user experience.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a user bandwidth adjustment method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method includes:
- Step 301 The network side detects the bandwidth available to the user and the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user.
- Step 302 The network side compares the available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the service currently used by the user.
- Step 303 The network side determines, according to the comparison result, whether the current bandwidth is sufficient.
- the notification information for notifying the user of the bandwidth status includes a triggering manner that allows the user to directly trigger a bandwidth upgrade, a bandwidth subscription, or a bandwidth trial; for example, a bandwidth subscription, that is, a product upgrade, or a trial hyperlink; After clicking the hyperlink, you can directly enter the carrier's bandwidth order, upgrade, or trial page, or even directly order bandwidth, upgrade or trial, without the need to operate through other channels;
- the network side can also select a suitable recommended package product according to the user information: for example, according to the user's local area, frequently accessed business types, user's age, occupation and other information, the user is recommended to the appropriate package product.
- Step 305 The user needs to increase the bandwidth, selects a product trial, and the network side temporarily increases the bandwidth for the user;
- Step 306 After the user trial period has elapsed, confirm to the user whether to order the official product. If the user confirms the formal order, proceed to step 307 to perform bandwidth adjustment. If the formal order is not performed, proceed to step 308 to restore the original user. Bandwidth
- Step 307 For the user to directly order the bandwidth product and after the trial period, the user subscribes to the official product, adjusts the bandwidth for the user, and upgrades the user bandwidth;
- Step 308 After the user trial period has elapsed, if the formal subscription is no longer performed, the original bandwidth of the user is restored;
- Step 309 After a series of judgments and processing procedures, the user continues to use the business.
- the user can adjust the bandwidth of the user directly by using the PCRF, the PCEF, and the charging system on the network side, and the adjustment may be real-time or according to a certain policy. Delay adjustment.
- the user's current bandwidth can be temporarily upgraded, and the user is given a certain trial period for the increased bandwidth. After the trial period expires, the user is notified whether it is required to order a formal upgrade product (bandwidth), and then The user's selection proceeds to the next step. For example, when the user chooses to order the official product, the bandwidth adjustment is performed, and when the user chooses not to order the trial product, the user's previous bandwidth is restored. In addition, if the network side determines that the bandwidth is sufficient to support the current service, the user does not need to perform bandwidth adjustment notification for the user.
- the method of the embodiment of the invention enables the network side to timely sense the bandwidth usage experience when the user actually uses various services, and gives the user a prompt, so that the user can understand the current network bandwidth status, and clearly understand the current network bandwidth product situation and use.

- the system in this embodiment can support the real-time notification mode of the page pop-up, the notification mode such as SMS/MMS, and the ODP terminal and the ODP server.
- the basic functions of each network element are detailed below:
- the service gateway 401 (with PCEF function):
- the service gateway provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be modified based on the function of the traditional data service gateway, and the new "bandwidth detection” and “strategy execution” capabilities are added;
- PCRF Policy Generation
- Converged billing system 402 can be implemented based on a traditional billing system, providing functions such as flexible billing, account management, product management, and notification triggering;
- the ODP server 404 and the ODP client 405 The embodiment of the present invention adds a network element to provide self-service, notification, and the like for the terminal user.
- a user bandwidth is implemented by using the system in FIG. Adjusted signaling flow chart.
- Step 501 The user initiates a service access request.
- the user initiates a service access request through a web browser on the client or a software client.
- Steps 502-503 The service gateway with the PCEF function initiates service bandwidth requirement detection; that is, it determines the network bandwidth in which the user can use the current service to have a better experience.
- PCEF can detect the current service bandwidth requirements by using the dynamic detection method of service bandwidth requirements;
- the dynamic detection of the service bandwidth requirement means that when the user accesses the multimedia service, the PCEF entity can determine the service according to the media description information in the service source interaction signaling (if the signaling is carried).
- the PCEF reports the service access request of the user to the charging system, and the reporting message may carry the currently accessed service ID, and the subsequent charging system performs authentication and charging according to the ID. Meanwhile, the reporting message is optional.
- the required bandwidth value can be carried by a public AVP (Attribute Value Pair), such as a Service-Information field, or by a Vendor AVP.
- the service gateway can obtain the bandwidth requirements of multiple running services occupying the network bandwidth.
- Steps 504-505 Business authority judgment; This step is optional.
- the billing system can first authenticate the user's service access and determine whether the user has the right to use the service. If there is no permission, the user's current service access request is directly denied, and the service access is terminated. If there is permission to access, the service is normally interacted. access.
- Step 506 The bandwidth is insufficient to determine; the bandwidth shortage judgment is to compare the current available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the currently used service source; when the current available bandwidth of the user is less than the bandwidth requirement of the service source, the user may consider that the user may have poor QoE;
- the bandwidth shortage judgment is to compare the current available bandwidth of the user with the bandwidth requirement of the currently used service source; when the current available bandwidth of the user is less than the bandwidth requirement of the service source, the user may consider that the user may have poor QoE;
- the convergent charging system can use the static acquisition method, that is, the query
- the package ordered by the user determines the maximum bandwidth that the user is currently in effect. For example, the monthly subscription ordered by the user is
- the user's current maximum possible bandwidth is 1M; of course, the current bandwidth of the user can be detected in real time, which may include: through the software deployed on the user end, when it is necessary to detect the current bandwidth of the user, The client software sends a detection command, and the user client software is required to report the current bandwidth information of the user; or the client software periodically reports the bandwidth status; when the condition is met (for example, the bandwidth is reduced to a certain threshold), the client software is triggered to report;
- the converged charging system can preferentially use the data reported by the PCEF in the foregoing step 503. If the PCEF fails to obtain the data due to the failure to obtain the data or other reasons, the converged charging system can obtain the data locally.
- the method for obtaining the bandwidth requirement of the service source from the local charging system may be: reading the static data of the bandwidth requirement of the corresponding service configured in the system according to the service ID reported by the PCEF; for example, the service accessed by the PCEF reported by the PCEF according to the service ID.
- the type is the Youku video service, and the charging system reads the configuration information of the local Youku video service to obtain the bandwidth requirement of the service.
- the current solution cannot determine the current user's QoE, in which case The system can default the user's QoE to meet the user's needs, that is, the user's current bandwidth is sufficient to meet the business needs, and no reminder is sent to the user.
- Step 507 Trigger real-time notification; if the billing system determines that the current bandwidth condition of the user is poor, the insufficient bandwidth notification may be sent to the ODP server.
- Notification messages can include notification types (such as: "QoE Insufficient" message), target users (such as users currently using the service), recommended product information that meets the bandwidth requirements of the service source, that is, recommended higher bandwidth products, such as product list ID .
- Step 508 The reminder mode is judged; the ODP Server can select an appropriate reminder mode according to the user state, and the reminder modes include but are not limited to SMS, MMS, email, real-time reminder of the ODP client, and the like.
- Step 509 The reminder message is pushed: the ODP server sends the reminder message to the user terminal according to the insufficient bandwidth notification content sent by the charging system, and the user is reminded that the available bandwidth is insufficient.
- the reminder message may include the bandwidth product recommendation information, the product upgrade message, or Product trial messages, etc., sent to the user;
- the "Bandwidth Product Recommendation" message sent to the user by the ODP server can include the message type (with Wide product recommendation), a list of recommended products that meet the bandwidth requirements of the business source and a description of each product.
- Each product description can be extracted from a locally stored product description information base based on the product ID received from the billing system.
- the delay message may be further sent.
- the purpose of the delay is to allow the user to actually experience the current service experience for a period of time.
- the time interval for delaying the reminder bandwidth may be configured on the ODP server.
- the reminder mode is real-time reminder of the ODP client
- a reminder dialog box will pop up in real time on the user's mobile client to remind the user.
- the reminder content may include: recommended products, trial packages, detailed descriptions, trial validity periods (cycles, cumulative traffic, access times, etc.), and trial fees (set by the operator, can be set to free).
- Step 510 The user self-selects; because the message sent by the ODP server carries the product recommendation information, the trial information, and the corresponding trigger mode, the user can directly select the recommended or trial product; if the user agrees to try it first, the user can directly Click on "Trial" bandwidth product on the ODP message.
- Step 511-512 The terminal (ODP Client) initiates a product trial request; the ODP Server forwards the request to the converged billing system.
- the terminal can also directly initiate a product subscription or upgrade request.
- other network elements do not need to implement the trial period limit, but can directly change the user bandwidth.
- Step 513 The billing system performs product order processing; the billing system performs a trial product ordering operation, and records the order relationship between the user and the trial product.
- Steps 514-516 The product is successfully tested, the user QoS is adjusted, the charging system notifies the PCRF user of the order relationship change, and the QoS policy is updated and delivered; the PCRF generates a new QoS policy according to the user's new product ordering relationship and the service usage information. .
- the PCRF In this real-time example, if the user tries to use the high-bandwidth package, the PCRF generates a bandwidth-raising strategy and sends several parameters to be monitored: including the accumulated access duration, accumulated traffic, and accumulated access times.
- Step 517 The PCRF sends a new QoS policy to the service gateway PCEF; the PCEF performs local Policy update to increase the bandwidth of the user;
- Step 518-519 Trial of the ordering result display process: The billing system returns the ordering result to the ODP Server; the ODP Server pushes the trial result to the terminal (ODP Client), and the ODP Client presents the result to the user; the user continues the service access.
- the service gateway PCEF interacts with the converged charging system to complete the service charging process (in this embodiment, it is free), and reports the user's access time, access traffic, number of accesses, etc., and the charging system performs the charging system. Cumulative statistics.
- Steps 520-522 After the trial product fails, the QoS is adjusted in real time: Since the billing system records the usage of the user package product (accumulated access duration, accumulated traffic, cumulative access times, etc.), when the user subscribes for the high bandwidth trial product is invalid Time (product combination period, duration, flow rate, number of visits, etc.), the billing system updates the user's order relationship; the billing system triggers the QoS policy refresh, and restores the user bandwidth in real time (the network element interaction process is consistent with the product trial process); The user pushes the trial expiration reminder, and the reminder content includes the formal product recommendation (the network element interaction process is similar to the trial success notification).
- the method of the embodiment of the invention can implement the functions of bandwidth notification, QoE detection, bandwidth adjustment reminder, bandwidth product upgrade, ordering or trial, flexible charging, etc., thereby improving the user's bandwidth perception and making the user more convenient to adjust the bandwidth. Flexible and improved user experience.
