Embodiment Construction

[0033]In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the present invention clearer, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0034]Seefigure 2 ,figure 2 It is a schematic flowchart of a charging mode switching method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and the method can be used in the session management function SMF module. Such asfigure 2 As shown, including the following steps:

[0035]Step 201: In the online charging mode, determine whether to switch to the offline charging mode according to the switching strategy; the switching strategy is related to the response of the charging function CHF module to the first charging data request message for requesting online charging.

[0036]In the embodiment of the present invention, the 5G architecture is used to integrate the online charging mode and the offline charging mode to obtain a converged charging syst...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of communication, provides a charging mode switching method, an SMF module and a converged charging system, and aims to solve the problem that switching between two charging modes is not standardized in the prior art. The charging mode switching method corresponding to the SMF module comprises the following steps: in an online charging mode, determiningwhether to switch to an offline charging mode or not according to a switching strategy; wherein the switching strategy is related to the response of a charging function CHF module to a first chargingdata request message for requesting online charging; and sending a second charging data request message for requesting offline charging under the condition of determining to switch to the offline charging mode. Thus, under the condition that the charging system processing unit breaks down, the SMF module can switch the online charging mode into the offline charging mode according to the switchingstrategy, and therefore continuity of the charging session and no loss of charging data are guaranteed.

Description

Technical field[0001]The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a charging mode switching method, an SMF (Session Management Function, session management function) module and a converged charging system.Background technique[0002]5G SA (Standalone, independent networking) realizes software-defined network functions and network connections through architecture and functional reconstruction. The architecture diagram of 5G independent networking can be seenfigure 1 Shown. Among them, the network architecture diagram includes a charging structure for service charging to realize the charging function in the charging service.[0003]The 4G billing architecture is an architecture in which offline billing and online billing are simultaneously implemented without affecting each other, while 5G uses a billing architecture that integrates online billing and offline billing. This architecture realizes both online and offline billing. Integration of fee...
