计费模块28,用于在API接口模块24接收到UE发送的订购流量包之后,记录从该用户的账户中扣除的订购流量包对应的费用,即使是说,计费单元28可以用于记录流量包交易双方交易流量包时的手续金额。
作为另一种情况,所述流量包参数还包括使用地点信息,API接口模块24接收的用户终端发送的流量包查询请包括所述使用地点信息;则用户状态模块26查询的所述所述待订购流量包还符合所述使用地点的要求,所述订购流量包由所述用户终端在所述使用地点使用。
本发明实施例中,数据分析处理模块22利用实时用户体验指标和媒体业务传输参数计算满足该用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数的方式具体可以为:
数据分析处理模块22用于将实时用户体验指标和该媒体业务传输参数作为公式f(bandwith)=Bandwitho+(MOSo-MOSC)*Po*f(t,rate,rate variance)输入,以计算满足该用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数;
或者,数据分析处理模块22用于将实时用户体验指标和该媒体业务传输参数作为公式f(priority)=(MOSo-MOSC)*Po*f(t,rate,rate variance)输入,以计算满足该用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数;
其中,Bandwitho表示该用户体验等级中定义的无线信道带宽,MOSo表示该用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标,MOSC表示实时用户体验指标,Po表示该用户体验等级中定义的无线信道调度优先级,f(t,rate,rate variance)表示增量计算函数,t、rate以及rate variance分别表示体业务传输参数包括的媒体业务的时段长度、媒体业务访问的平均速率以及该平均速率的方差,f(bandwith)表示满足MOSo所需要的无线信道带宽,f(priority)表示满足MOSo所需要的无线信道调度优先级。举例来说,f(t,rate,rate variance)可以由t、rate以及rate variance三者的乘积来实现,或者,f(t,rate,rate variance)可以由t以及rate variance二者的乘积来实现。

本发明实施例中,计费系统27中的商业管理点(Business Management Point,BMP)可以提供Web接口与外部单元通信,而计费系统27中的融合计费点(Convergent Billing Point,CBP)可以用于记录用户的流量包、流量使用情况以及扣费,此外它可以与GW进行通信以知会用户的流量使用情况、扣费情况等信息。
本发明实施例中,流量交易平台的网络控制模块23可以发送包括订购流量包的用户流量包更新信息给计费系统27的BMP,BMP接收用户流量包更新信息后可以发送给CBP,由CBP根据订购流量包更新存储的该用户的流量包以及更新订购流量包的出售用户的流量包,以及由CBP从该用户的账户中扣除与订购流量包的价格相对应的订购金额,并将该订购金额增加至出售用户的账户。进一步地,CBP还可以将更新后的该用户的流量包以及更新后的订购流量包的出售用户的流量包反馈给GW以及流量交易平台(如VNO平台)。
作为一种实现方式网络控制模块23可以用于根据基站的无线资源使用情况限制高用户体验等级的可订购流量包的数量,并指定使用所述待订购流量包的限定时段和使用地点以保证所述待购流量包对应用户的用户体验要求;如果完成的流量包交易数量小于所述可订购流量包的数量,则API接口模块24可接收用户终端发送的所述流量包查询请求。
以上对本发明实施例的网络架构以及流量交易平台(如VNO平台)进行了描述,下面进一步描述本发明实施例公开的方法。本发明实施例中,用户可以访问VNO平台来完成流量包的交易过程。当用户A需要订购其他有用的流量包时,他先确认要订购的流量包参数,该参数包括该流量包的大小、限定时段、用户体验等级、价格等;其中,用户体验等级体现了无线网络给该用户提供的服务保证,可以为MOS分,或者为网络服务质量(QOS)值(如带宽、延迟等)、调度优先级。用户体验等级主要体现在用户通过无线网络访问媒体业务时(如看视频)的业务体验差异,如用户体验等级高的用户,无线网络可以保 证其在任何时候都可以流程的在线观看高清视频流,不会有停顿、乱码等影响主观感受的情况出现;而用户体验等级较低的用户,在网络较拥塞的情况下,其体验不能获得保证;最糟糕的情况是,网络比较拥挤时(同时接入的用户较多时),用户有可能访问不了媒体业务。
请参阅图3,图3是本发明实施例公开的一种流量包交易方法的流程示意图。其中,图3所描述的方法是从VNO平台一侧来进行描述的。上述实施例中的流量交易平台可用实现该方法,具体的各步骤或者功能上述流量交易平台中相应的模块可用执行或者配置相关功能。如图3所示,该方法可以包括以下步骤:
301、VNO平台接收UE发送的流量包查询请求,该流量包查询请求包括待订购流量包参数,该待订购流量包参数包括待订购流量包的大小、限定时段、用户体验等级以及价格;更进一步地,该待订购流量包参数还可以包括使用地点;其中,UE可以通过VNO平台提供的API接口模块向VNO平台发送流量包查询请求。例如一个更为具体的实施例所述流量包查询请求包括待订购流量包参数,所述待订购流量包参数包括使用待订购流量包的限定时段或者所述待订购流量包的用户体验等级。
302、VNO平台对UE进行身份认证,若身份认证通过,查询符合待订购流量包参数的流量包并发送给UE;其中,VNO平台的认证管理模块可以查询UE的注册信息,并根据UE的注册信息对UE进行身份认证。例如更具体的对所述用户终端进行身份认证,若身份认证通过,查询符合所述待订购流量包参数的待订购流量包,所述待订购流量包符合所述限定时段或者用户体验等级的要求,并发送所述待订购流量包给所述用户终端。
303、VNO平台接收UE发送的订购流量包,该订购流量包为符合待订购流量包参数的待订购流量包中的流量包。具体的如所述订购流量包是由所述用户终端从所述符合所述待订购流量包参数的流量包中选择出的流量包,其中所述订购流量包在所述限定时段使用或者所述用户终端使用所述订购流量包时获得所述用户体验等级。
本发明实施例中,VNO平台还可以确认订购流量包的合法性,包括核实订购用户是否符合购买条件(支付方式、剩余金额等)、订购流量包是否已经售出,甚至可以进一步的向CN确认订购流量包的信息是否准确;其中,VNO平台的用户状态模块中记录了用户的套餐信息、资费信息,可用于确认订购流量包的合法性。
本发明实施例中,VNO平台还可以向交易双方或者仅买方发出订购确认通知,并接收买方反馈的信息。
304、VNO平台发送包括订购流量包的用户流量包更新信息给计费系统,以使计费系统根据订购流量包更新存储的该用户的流量包以及更新订购流量包的出售用户的流量包。以及使计费系统从该用户的账户中扣除与订购流量包的价格相对应的订购金额,并将订购金额增加至出售用户的账户;进一步地,VNO平台的计费模块可以记录从该用户的账户中扣除的订购流量包对应的费用。
305、VNO平台将发送包括订购流量包的用户流量包更新信息给核心网设备,以使核心网设备根据订购流量包更新存储的该用户的流量包以及更新订购流量包的出售用户的流量包,并根据更新后的该用户的流量包为UE提供对应的无线信道。
本发明实施例中,用户体验等级可以设置1~5共5个级别,用户体验等级为5时,表示用户能获得最高级别的无线信道调度优先级,并能够流畅的体验媒体业务,即使在网络拥塞时,他访问的媒体业务的体验也可以得到保障。其中,用户体验等级中定义的参数如表1所示,包括但不限于如下参数:MOS分、带宽、调度优先级。
表1
用户体验等级 MOS分 带宽 调度优先级
5 4.5分及以上 100M
4 4分 50M
3 3分 20M
2 2分 10M
1 1分 5M
本发明实施例中,用户交易流量包可以有两种典型情况,第一种情况为用 户A先够买了一限定时段和使用地点的有用户体验保障的流量包,用户A基于流量包的紧俏情况、价格波动或者自己是否需要等因素的考虑,会将预先已经购买的订购流量包交易出去;用户B会从用户A购买该流量包。该流量包交易的背景为,在未来特定的某个时段的具体位置会有大量的用户密集聚集(如体育场赛事、演唱会、假期的某个热门景点等),由于该地点的某个特定的时段会用户数量剧增,无线网络不可能保证所有用户的体验;但运营商会预先准备一些用户体验等级较高的流量包给有需要的用户,譬如在某体育场5月10号晚上19:30~21:30(重大体育赛事期间),运营商根据无线基站的空口资源能力,将50%的空口资源用于提供1000个用户等级为4的10G流量包,剩下的50%空口资源用于其他用户的接入,且这部分用户接入的情况是不能获得用户体验保障的。其中,用户A获得用户体验等级为4的流量包信息如表2所示,同时转让该流量包时,附带有价格:
表2
  用户A流量包
时段 2014年5月4日 19:30-21:30
用户体验等级 4
大小 10G
使用地点 XXX体育馆
转让价格 100元
本发明实施例中,用户A获得(有可能是从运营商处购买获得、或从虚拟运营商处购买、或者月度套餐中包含该流量包等,方式不做限定)上述流量包后,可以通过VNO平台出售该流量包。用户B通过VNO平台可以从用户A买到该流量包,并且价格由A和B自行协商。交易完成后,VNO平台通知计费系统修改用户A和用户B的流量包(前述流程第304步),并将订购流量包通知到核心网设备(前述流程第305步)。其中,使用地点也记录在计费系统和CN(如GW)中,当购买了上述流量包的用户B移动到该地域对应的无线基站后,在流量包限定时段内,无线网络即开始按其购买的流量包的参数为用户B提供对应用户体验等级的无线信道。
其中,采用上述的交易方式,能够保障用户体验的流量包可以灵活的在用户间进行交易,从而能够让真正需要的用户获得更好的业务体验。同时,用户 B从A购买了该流量包后,可以根据自己的实际需要再将该流量包交易给其他用户,通过交易,将空口提供的1000个有用户体验保障的流量包流通到真正需要它的用户的手中,起到资源合理配置的作用,从而也避免空口资源浪费。
另外,第二种情况是基于月度套餐的交易方式。通过交易前后用户A和B的流量包对比可以看出交易的内容,如下表3为交易前两个用户的流量包对比。其中,用户B为普通的用户,用户体验等级为缺省等级(1或者2级)不提供保障,当无线网络资源有限时(用户接入数量多,处于网络拥塞的地段时)用户可能无法访问媒体业务,或者访问时体验不好(视频播放不流畅、有乱码、停顿等)。其中各个流量包的价格为运营商提供对应套餐的价格。
表3
Figure PCTCN2014090202-appb-000001
在一些时段或者地域,用户A并不需要访问媒体业务,譬如在流量包的一个月内,用户A出差外地,晚上8:00~10:00他不需要访问媒体业务,这段时间的流量包和用户体验保障也不需要,用户A可以将该段时间的2G流量包通过VNO平台转让出去,而用户B这个月晚上需要观看高清的电视剧,刚好需要高等级的用户体验等级,两个用户通过VNO平台交易流量包,完成交易后,两个用户的流量包套餐信息如表4。其中,交易完成后,用户A在20:00~22:00这个时段,其用户体验等级变成缺省等级,同时流量包大小降为8G;相应的用户B在在20:00~22:00这个时段,其用户体验等级变成5级,且该时段有高用户体验等级的流量包为2G;总体而言,通过该交易,用户A将20:00~22:00时段,用户体验等级为5的2G流量包转让给了用户B;两个用户交易该流量包的价格可以自行协商,交易完成后,计费系统可以从用户B的账户中扣款对应的金额给用户A。

本发明实施例中,用户在VNO平台上完成流量包订购之后,用户在订购流量包限定时段内访问服务器提供的媒体业务时,VNO平台可以实时对用户访问媒体业务时的无线信道进行控制,以保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验。请参阅图4,图4是本发明实施例公开的一种无线信道控制方法的流程示意图。如图4所示,该无线信道控制方法可以包括以下步骤:
401、VNO平台收集UE访问媒体业务(即在订购流量包限定时段内访问服务器提供的媒体业务)时的实时用户体验指标,以及收集服务器提供的媒体业务的媒体业务传输参数。
本发明实施例中,媒体业务传输参数可以包括媒体业务的时段长度(t)、媒体业务访问的平均速率(rate)以及平均速率的方差(rate variance)等。
402、VNO平台判断实时用户体验指标是否低于UE的订购流量包的用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标,若低于,利用实时用户体验指标和媒体业务传输参数计算满足用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数。
本发明实施例中,当满足用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数为无线信道带宽时,可以将实时用户体验指标和媒体业务传输参数作为公式f(bandwith)=Bandwitho+(MOSo-MOSC)*Po*f(t,rate,rate variance)输入,以计算满足用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数;当满足用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数为无线信道调度优先级时,可以将实时用户体验指标和媒体业务传输参数作为公式f(priority)=(MOSo-MOSC)*Po*f(t,rate,rate variance)输入,以计算满足用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标所需要的无线信道参数;其中,Bandwitho表示用户体验等级中定义的无线信道带宽,MOSo表示用户体验等级中定义的用户体验指标,MOSC表示实时用户体验指标,Po表示用户体验等级中定义的无 线信道调度优先级,f(t,rate,rate variance)表示增量计算函数,t、rate以及rate variance分别表示媒体业务传输参数包括的媒体业务的时段长度、媒体业务访问的平均速率以及该平均速率的方差,f(bandwith)表示满足MOSo所需要的无线信道带宽,f(priority)表示满足MOSo所需要的无线信道调度优先级。
本发明实施例中,UE在订购流量包限定时段内访问服务器提供的媒体业务时的实时用户体验指标可以是UE实时计算的MOS分,其中,UE可以综合考虑UE的缓存大小、实时速率、媒体流的丢包率、编码质量等因素,并根据这些参数计算出的实时MOS分。
403、VNO平台将计算出的无线信道参数传输给核心网设备,以使得核心网设备根据无线信道参数调整UE访问媒体业务时所采用的无线信道参数。
本发明实施例中,VNO计算出无线信道参数后,可以将这些参数实时传给CN的PCRF实体,其中,PCRF实体接收这些参数后,可以实时调整无线基站、GW中用户队列中UE的无线信道参数,这样就可以保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验。
在前面实施例中,用户A将20:00~22:00这个限定时段的流量包卖给了用户B,所以在这个时段内,当用户B通过UE访问媒体业务时,VNO根据上述方式收集用户B访问媒体业务时的实时用户体验指标以及媒体业务传输参数,并计算出针对用户B的用户体验等级提升到5时的无线信道参数,并通知到核心网设备,使得核心网设备可以实时对用户B访问媒体业务的无线信道参数作出调整,这样能够在订购流量包限定时段内,保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验,以促进流量交易的积极性。
本发明实施例中,VNO完成交易双方的流量包交易后,可以对交易双方进行计费,其中计费方式有两种,即非实时计费和实时计费。在非实时计费中,VNO平台还可以记录各个交易用户的计费信息,如账户余额、交易明细单、话务单等情况,VNO平台可以定期采用缴费(交易)文件的方式将包括订购流量包的用户流量包更新信息给计费系统的AR,由AR上传文件给CBP,以执行批量缴费。在实时计费方式中,当用户A和B完成交易后,VNO平台可以发送包括订购流量包的用户流量包更新信息给计费系统的BMP,BMP接收用户 流量包更新信息后可以发送给CBP,由CBP修改对应用户的账户记录信息,并将修改后的账户记录信息反馈给GW以及VNO平台。
通过前面实施例的描述可以看出,本发明实施例可以在订购流量包限定时段内,保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验,可以促进流量交易的积极性。

流量交易模块51,还用于当满足媒体业务类型的用户体验等级高于当前流量包的用户体验等级时,访问流量交易平台(如VNO平台),主动搜索满足该媒体业务类型需要的用户体验等级的待订购流量包。
本发明实施例中,流量交易模块51可以从核心网设备或流量交易平台中获得当前流量包的用户体验等级,以及从用户终端所在无线基站的RRC配置调度器中获得UE所在无线基站的无线资源利用率。其中,无线资源利用率可以是 无线基站带宽占有率,或者用户接入占比率。
本发明实施例中,通过图5所示的用户终端,用户根据自己的需求(卖出流量包或买进流量包),通过流量交易模块51从VNO平台中查找符合需求的(用户体验等级、使用时段、大小等要求)流量包进行交易。在此过程中,用户终端就是一个VNO平台入口,通过与VNO平台通信来完成交易。具体交易过程包括:
1)、用户启动流量交易模块,并输入待订购流量包参数,包括待订购流量包的大小、限定时段、用户体验等级和价格等;进一步地,还可以包括使用地点;
2)、流量交易模块根据输入的待订购流量包参数,向流量交易平台请求符合待订购流量包参数的待订购流量包;
3)、流量交易模块接收流量交易平台发送过来的符合待订购流量包参数的待订购流量包,并呈现给用户,其中,待订购流量包中包括用户体验等级;
4)、用户从流量交易模块中选择订购流量包,并将选择结果反馈给流量交易平台;
5)、用户确认订购选择的订购流量包(包括支付信息确认),并接收流量交易平台发送的订购结果。
本发明实施例中,图5所示的用户终端也可以智能地为用户推荐能够保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验的订购流量包。具体推荐过程如图6所示,可以包括以下步骤:
601、用户体验模块收集用户终端在当前流量包限定时段内访问服务器提供的媒体业务时的实时用户体验指标;
602、通讯模块在当实时用户体验指标低于预设用户体验指标时,获得服务器提供的媒体业务的媒体业务类型(如视频、文本、音乐等);
603、流量交易模块获得当前流量包的用户体验等级以及用户终端所在无线基站的无线资源利用率;
604、处理器模块在用户终端所在无线基站的无线资源利用率高于预设无 线资源利用率时,比较满足媒体业务类型的用户体验等级是否高于当前流量包的用户体验等级;
605、流量交易模块在满足媒体业务类型的用户体验等级高于当前流量包的用户体验等级时,访问流量交易平台,主动搜索满足该媒体业务类型需要的用户体验等级的待订购流量包,并提醒用户购买。
其中,在无线基站的RRC(radio resource control)配置有调度器,及动态资源分配模块(Dynamic Resource Allocation[scheduler]),它记录了无线基站空口有多少用户,使用了多少资源(带宽等),剩余多少资源。在上述的流程的步骤603中,流量交易模块可以实时向无线基站的RRC配置调度器获得空口资源使用率,以及所有接入用户体验等级的统计分布等情况。如当用户在线收看高清视频,其用户体验等级为3,在某个时段内,该无线基站的接入用户增加,导致无线基站的空口资源开始变得紧张,特别是用户体验等级大于3的用户数量增加,此时无线基站对用户体验等级为3的用户已经不能保障其继续收看在线高清视频。但根据计算(计算工作可以由无线基站、用户终端或者流量交易平台完成),用户体验等级为4的流量包可以支持在线高清视频,此时流量交易模块可以从流量交易平台搜索用户体验等级为4以上的待订购流量包,推荐给用户。
本发明实施例中,流量交易平台可以在订购流量包限定时段内,保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验,可以促进流量交易的积极性。
此外,本发明实施例中,UE也可以智能地搜索用户体验等级满足所访问的媒体业务类型的待订购流量包,以保障用户访问媒体业务时的用户体验,可以促进流量交易的积极性。
