In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a real-time location charging triggering method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method comprises the following steps:
in step 110, the MME acquires source location information and target location information of the user terminal in response to a change in the location of the user terminal.
In step 120, it is determined whether to send a location trigger message to the PGW according to a matching relationship between the source location information, the target location information, and the subscriber terminal subscription location information. When the user terminal signs a Location-related package or product, the PCRF extends a Location-List AVP (Location List attribute value pair) field in a CCA (Credit Control Answer) message of the Gx interface, where the AVP field carries the user terminal signing Location information, and the PCRF transfers the user terminal signing Location information to the MME when issuing an event trigger request to the MME through the Gx interface. The MME compares the source location information and the target location information with the user terminal signing location information respectively, if the source location information and the target location information are not matched with the user terminal signing location information, the MME does not send a location trigger message to the PGW, and if at least one of the source location information and the target location information is matched with the user terminal signing location information, the MME sends a location trigger message to the PGW so that the PGW can trigger a charging message to a charging system.
In the embodiment, the MME acquires source location information and target location information of the user terminal in response to a change in the location of the user terminal, and determines whether to send a location trigger message to the PGW according to a matching relationship between the source location information, the target location information, and the user terminal subscription location information, so that a problem that when the mobile location of the user terminal is switched, the PGW frequently triggers a location charging message to the charging system, resulting in a large number of useless charging tickets or messages can be solved.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a real-time location charging triggering method according to another embodiment of the present invention.
In step 210, the MME stores the user terminal subscription location information sent by the PCRF. The PCRF extends a Location-List AVP field in a CCA message of the Gx interface, where the AVP field carries user terminal subscription Location information, and for example, the eNB0 area is a traffic preference area. And the PCRF sends the user terminal subscription location information to the MME when issuing the event trigger request through the Gx interface.
In step 220, in response to the location change of the user terminal, the source location information and the target location information of the user terminal are obtained. For example, if the user terminal is handed over from the eNB1 area to the eNB2 area, the eNB1 area is the source location and the eNB2 area is the target location.
In step 230, the source location information is compared with the subscriber terminal subscription location information, if not, step 240 is executed, and if so, step 260 is executed. For example, if the eNB1 area does not match the eNB0 area, step 240 is performed.
In step 240, the target location information is compared with the subscriber terminal subscription location information, for example, it is determined whether the eNB2 area matches the eNB0 area, if so, step 250 is executed, otherwise, step 260 is executed.
In step 250, a location trigger message is sent to the SGW/PGW so that the PGW triggers a charging message to the CG or OCS.
In step 260, no location trigger message is sent to the SGW/PGW.
In this embodiment, the MME compares the source location information and the target location information with the user terminal subscription location information, does not send the location trigger message to the PGW if both the source location information and the target location information are not matched with the user terminal subscription location information, and sends the location trigger message to the PGW if at least one of the source location information and the target location information is matched with the user terminal subscription location information, so that the PGW triggers the charging message to the CG or the OCS, thereby implementing a flow of triggering the charging message according to the subscription, and filtering a large amount of useless charging messages generated due to the handover.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a real-time location charging triggering method according to still another embodiment of the present invention.
In step 310, the UE signs up for Location information and synchronizes to PCRF through CRM (Customer Relationship Management), where in the CCA message of the existing Gx interface, a Location-List AVP field is extended, and the AVP field carries the Location List signed up for the UE, for example, as shown in fig. 4, the name of AVP is Location-List, the code of AVP is 55460, and the AVP type string is separated by a semicolon.
In step 320, the user terminal accesses to the MME through the S1-MME interface, initiating an authentication request.
In step 330, the MME initiates a session request to the SGW/PGW.
In step 340, the PGW requests a policy from the PCRF through the CCR, that is, determines whether the user terminal signs the user terminal subscription location information.
In step 350, the PCRF returns a location information list of the user terminal subscription to the MME through S5/S11 in the CCA, and the MME temporarily stores the user terminal subscription location information.
At step 360, the user location changes.
In step 370, the MME compares the target location information and the source location information with the stored subscriber subscription location information, and if they are not the same, the SGW/PGW is not notified.
At step 380, the user location changes again.
In step 390, the MME compares the destination location information and the source location information with the stored subscriber subscription location information, and if at least one of the items is the same, notifies the SGW/PGW of the Change Notification Request (Change Notification Request) in S11.
At step 3100, the PGW triggers a CG or OCS charging message.
At step 3110, the CG or OCS responds to the PGW.
For example, a campus user A orders a campus 5-element traffic packet, and on a certain day, the user A enters a campus covered cell from a non-campus covered cell, and a network can acquire user state information change in real time, so that traffic is reduced for the user or charging is carried out at a lower tariff, and unnecessary user complaints can be reduced; the campus user B orders the campus 5-element flow package, and on a certain day, the user B enters a non-campus covered cell from the campus covered cell, and the network can acquire the change of user state information in real time, so that the user is charged with standard charges, and the telecommunication loss can be reduced.
Fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an MME of the present invention. The MME includes a terminal location information obtaining unit 410, a terminal location information comparing unit 420, and a location triggering unit 430, where:
the terminal location information obtaining unit 410 is configured to obtain source location information and target location information of the user terminal in response to a change in the location of the user terminal.
The terminal location information comparing unit 420 is configured to determine a matching relationship between the source location information, the target location information, and the user terminal subscription location information. When the user terminal signs a position-related package or product, the PCRF expands a Location-List AVP field in a CCA message of a Gx interface, wherein the AVP field carries user terminal signing position information, and the PCRF transmits the user terminal signing position information to an MME when issuing an event trigger request to the MME through the Gx interface.
The location triggering unit 430 is configured to determine whether to send a location triggering message to the public data network gateway PGW according to a matching relationship between the source location information, the target location information, and the user terminal subscription location information. For example, if both the source location information and the target location information are not matched with the subscriber terminal subscription location information, the location trigger message is not sent to the PGW, and if at least one of the source location information and the target location information is matched with the subscriber terminal subscription location information, the location trigger message is sent to the PGW, so that the PGW triggers the charging message to the charging system.
In the embodiment, the MME acquires source location information and target location information of the user terminal in response to a change in the location of the user terminal, and determines whether to send a location trigger message to the PGW according to a matching relationship between the source location information, the target location information, and the user terminal subscription location information, so that a problem that when the mobile location of the user terminal is switched, the PGW frequently triggers a location charging message to the charging system, resulting in a large number of useless charging tickets or messages can be solved.
