Problems solved by technology

[0065] To sum up, the disadvantages of the existing technology are: in the existing association mechanism, the default user can only use one access technology to attach to the network at the same time, or when using multiple access technologies to attach to the network at the same time, Different IP addresses will be allocated; therefore, when a user uses multiple access technologies to attach to the network at the same time, and each access technology uses the same IP address, PCRF or PCEF cannot uniquely determine the bearer based on the IP address, resulting in PCC The association between rules and bearers cannot be carried out, which causes PCEF to fail to execute PCC rules on the corresponding access network

Embodiment Construction

[0121] The method for associating PCC rules with bearers proposed by the embodiments of the present invention enables PCRF to formulate and issue PCC rules for specific access technologies, so that PCEF can carry out policies and calculations according to PCC rules on bearers of corresponding access technologies. fee control.

[0122] The processing flow of associating the PCC rule with the bearer in the embodiment of the present invention is as follows Figure 7 shown, including the following steps:

[0123] Step 701: PCRF generates and saves new PCC rules according to service information, user subscription, operator configuration and other information; and, PCRF determines to transmit service data according to user subscription information, operator policy, network status, and service information, etc. stream access technology.

[0124] The process of determining the access technology is a logical decision-making process, in which the specific strategy used is determined b...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for achieving association of policy and charging control (PCC) rule and bear. The method comprises the following steps: determining the PCC rule by a policy and charging rule function entity (PCRF), and determining an access technique using the PCC rule; transmitting an indication information including the PCC rule and the determined access technique to a policy and charging execution function entity (PCEF) by the PCRF; and associating the PCC rule and the bear corresponding to the access technique by the PCEF. The invention also discloses a device and a device for achieving association of PCC and the bear. The method can achieve PCC architecture to support a user to access the network at the same IP address through a plurality of access techniques, so that PCRF can subject a multi-mode terminal accessed to the network to more flexible policy and charging control.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications, and in particular to a method, device and system for implementing policy and charging control (Policy and Charging Control, PCC) rules and bearer association. Background technique [0002] Communication networks are gradually evolving from Circuit Switching (CS) networks to Packet Switching (PS) networks with IP as the bearer. To provide carrier-class services on an IP network, a key issue is to consider end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) to meet users' quality requirements for communication services, especially real-time services such as video calls. In addition, because the IP communication network can provide more types of services, such as web page browsing, file download, video streaming on demand, etc., the network must have the ability to charge according to different service flows. To address these requirements, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3rd Generation Partn...
