Online charging engine, real-time charge off engine, and online charging method and system

Abstract

The invention discloses an online charging engine, a real-time charge off engine, and an online charging method and system. The online charging method comprises the following steps: receiving an online charging request, obtaining current user state information corresponding to a terminal identifier of a terminal, and performing authentication on a service request according to the current user state information, wherein the current user state information is user state information after the online charging processing of the previous online charging request of the terminal is terminated, and an authentication result of the service request is sent to a service network element. By adoption of the online charging method, service authentication and real-time charge off are asynchronous processing procedures, the response period of the service authentication is shortened, the retention rate of the online charging flow of the user is improved, the working load of the online charging system on service peaks is reduced, and thus the technical problem of large working load of the online charging system on service peaks, relatively low retention rate of the online charging flow of the user and influence to the service perception of the user on the flow service in the prior art are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of mobile communications, and in particular to an online charging engine, a real-time billing engine, an online charging method and system. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of 4G construction, high-speed Internet experience has been brought to users. The online billing mode of traffic services also provides users with real-time and perfect traffic service reminders and billing awareness, which promotes the overall improvement of traffic services and simultaneously drives The explosive growth of traffic business users and business volume. [0003] The network structure of the existing traffic service online billing system is as follows: figure 1 As shown, the online charging process of traffic service initiated by the user is shown by the bidirectional green arrow in the figure. The service request reaches the GGSN and P-GW through the wireless transmission network and in...
