Description

A kind of roaming local service function realizing method and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to strategy and the charging control technology field of mobile communication, be specifically related to a kind of roaming local service function realizing method and system.
Background technology
From third generation partner program (3rd Generation Partnership Project, 3GPP) since stage 7 (Release7) standards system, strategy and billing function are realized by strategy and charging control (Policy andCharging Control, PCC) framework.PCC framework is a functional framework that can be applied to multiple access technology, for example, PCC framework can be applied to universal mobile telecommunications system (Universal MobileTelecommunications System, UMTS) terrestrial radio Access Network (UMTS Terrestrial RadioAccess Network, UTRAN), global system for mobile communications (Global system for MobileCommunication, GSM) wireless access network, GSM data strengthen evolution (Enhanced Data Ratefor GSM Evolution, EDGE) wireless access network, intercommunicated wireless local area network (InterworkingWireles s Local Area Networks, and the grouping system of evolution (Evolved PacketSystem I-WLAN), EPS) etc.
Fig. 1 is the non-roaming structure composed schematic diagram of the PCC of existing Rel-11, below each logical functional entity and interface function thereof in the PCC framework shown in Fig. 1 is described:
Access facility (Access Facilities, AF), for the access point of service application is provided, the Internet resources that these service application are used need to carry out dynamic policy control.In the time that service surface is carried out parameter negotiation, related service information is passed to policy control and charging regulation function entity (Policy and ChargingRules Function by AF, PCRF), described policy control and charging regulation function entity also can be called policy control and charging rule functional device.If these business information are consistent with the strategy of PCRF, PCRF accepts this negotiation; Otherwise PCRF refuses this negotiation, and in the time of feedback, provide the acceptable service parameter of PCRF.Subsequently, AF can return to these parameters subscriber equipment (User Equipment, UE).Wherein, the interface between AF and PCRF is Rx interface.
PCRF is the core of PCC, for being responsible for the formulation of strategic decision-making and charging regulation.PCRF provides the rule of the network control based on business data flow, described network control rule comprises detection, gate (Gating Control), service quality (Quality of Service, QoS) control and the charging regulation based on data flow etc. of business data flow.PCRF sends to strategy and charging execution function entity (Policy and Control Enforcement Function, PCEF) to carry out the strategy of its formulation and charging regulation; Meanwhile, PCRF also needs to ensure that these rules are consistent with user's CAMEL-Subscription-Information.Wherein, PCRF generate strategy and charging regulation according to comprising: that obtain from AF and information traffic aided, the user's relevant with charging with policy control that obtain from user-subscribed database (SubscriptionProfile Repository, SPR) CAMEL-Subscription-Information and that obtain from PCEF by Gx interface and information carrying network of relation.
PCEF is usually located at gateway (Gate-Way, GW) in, as the grouped data network gateway of EPS (Packet Data Network Gateway, PDN-GW), GPRS (General PacketRadio Service, GPRS) GGSN (the Gateway GPRS Support Node in, GGSN) packet data gateway (the Packet Data Gateway and in I-WLAN, PDG) etc., carry out at loading end strategy and the charging regulation that PCRF formulates.Business datum flow filter in the rule that PCEF sends according to PCRF detects business data flow, and then these business data flows are carried out to strategy and the charging regulation that PCRF formulates; In the time that carrying is set up, the rule that PCEF sends according to PCRF is carried out resource distribution, and the information providing according to AF is carried out gate control; Meanwhile, the Event triggered that PCEF subscribes to according to PCRF reports event on bearer network; The charging regulation sending according to PCRF, PCEF carries out corresponding service data flow charge operation, and charging can be both online charging, can be also offline charging.If online charging, PCEF needs and Online Charging System (Online Charging System, OCS) carry out credit management together; When offline charging, the charge information of exchange correlation between PCEF and off-line accounting system (Offline ChargingSystem, OFCS).Wherein, the interface between PCEF and PCRF is Gx interface, and the interface between PCEF and OCS is Gy interface, and the interface between PCEF and OFCS is Gz interface.PCEF also can strengthen and has business measuring ability (Traffic Detection Function, TDF).The ADC rule that application that what PCEF can issue according to this locality configuration or PCRF comprise detects control strategy (ApplicationDetection and Control, ADC) apply and is detected and carry out strategy execution (as gate, redirected and limit bandwidth).
TDF can independently dispose, and it is connected with PCRF by Sd interface, and TDF can detect control law according to application pre-configured or that PCRF issues and apply detection and strategy execution.PCRF detects control law or the pre-configured rule of activation TDF for TDF provides application, and the policy control executable operations of independent TDF function comprises gate, is redirected and limit bandwidth.TDF makes report (beginning from the business/stream detecting to PCRF and the termination of for example reporting) of the dependent event of detected business/stream and information to PCRF, and send business datum stream description to PCRF, send from PCRF for flowing, the business of detection detects and the signaling of policing rule.
Bearing binding and event reporting function entity (Bearer Binding and Event ReportingFunction, BBERF) are usually located in Access Network gateway (Access Network Gateway).As accessed and adopt proxy mobile internet protocol version 6 (Proxy Mobile Internet Protocol version6 between EPS, gateway S-GW and P-GW by E-UTRAN when subscriber equipment, PMIPv6), when agreement, in S-GW, just there is BBERF.In the time that subscriber equipment accesses by trusted non-3 GPP access network, also there is BBERF in the trusted non-3 GPP access network Central Shanxi Plain.
SPR, stores the user policy, billing control and subscription information relevant to policy control and charging.Interface between SPR and PCRF is Sp interface.
OCS and PCEF complete the control and management of user credit under online charging mode jointly.
OFCS and PCEF complete the billing operation under offline charging mode jointly.
It is a packet data network (Packet Data Network of access that above PCC framework has been realized UE by each functional entity, PDN) Internet protocol of setting up connects the policy and charging control of Access Network (Internet ProtocolConnectivity Acces s Network, IP-CAN) session.
In prior art, in the time that user roams into visited place, there is the mode of two kinds of access visited network (being the network of visited place), one is ownership place route access (home routed access), one is local break-out access (local breakout acess), access scene as Fig. 2 (the PCC framework under LBO roaming scence) for local break-out, wherein PCEF is positioned at visited network, the information interaction of visited network and home network (being the network of ownership place) is by the roaming interface S9 interface transmission between visited network PCRF (V-PCRF) and home network PCRF (H-PCRF).When user is in the time that visited network accesses, V-PCRF sets up S9 session/sub-session by S9 interface requests, and H-PCRF formulates PCC strategy, issues PCC rule to V-PCRF, and V-PCRF passes to the execution such as PCEF/BBERF again.
The individual business demand of mobile communication is on the increase at present, the demand of user's roaming also constantly increases, user wishes to access home network business at visited network, and can pass through at the signing user terminal of home network and sequence number (Identity, ID) local service of message reference visited network, the local service of described visited network is also referred to as roaming local service (Roaming Local Service, RLS).
Because roaming local service function belongs to visited network, be independent of home network, therefore access corresponding strategies and the resource authorization of roaming local service for user, need to be by V-PCRF decision-making.But, strategy in prior art under roaming scence and charging regulation are formulated and are issued by H-PCRF, V-PCRF can only accept or refuse mandate and the rule of HPCRF, cannot carry out the independence of roaming local service to the user of home network signing and authorize, therefore cannot realize roaming local service function.
