Problems solved by technology

[0039] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the inability of the existing charging methods for telecommunication services to provide users with services that use online charging and offline charging methods or use prepaid and postpaid services at the same time, and the charging methods are not flexible. To provide a telecommunications service billing system and method, realize converged billing, and make the billing method more flexible

Embodiment 1

[0090] like Figure 4 Shown is the system architecture of the telecommunications service convergence billing of the present invention Figure 1 , the description of the service control equipment layer under this system architecture is as follows:

[0091] 1) The service control equipment layer can be traditional intelligent network SCP, SCL of PS domain, etc.

[0092] 2) The service control equipment layer mainly completes: signaling interaction with switching service equipment (including signaling reception and signaling delivery), service control (including: changing routes, virtual private network VPN long and short number translation, process selection, playing Notification tone, number collection, roaming information retrieval, content authentication to the home SP / CP, authority control, basic authentication, etc.). Some functions of billing and accounting processing are no longer processed.

[0093] 3) The service control device layer can access and update data relate...

Embodiment 2

[0117] like Image 6 Shown is the system architecture of the telecommunications service convergence billing of the present invention Figure II , the signaling interaction device layer under this system architecture is described as follows:

[0118] 1) The signaling interaction device layer may be the traditional intelligent network SCP, the SCL of the PS domain, and the like.

[0119] 2) The signaling interaction device layer mainly completes: signaling interaction with switching service equipment, including signaling reception (for example: accepting IDP, ERB, ACR, P&C Result, etc.) and signaling delivery (for example: RRBE, AC, PA, P&C, ATI, Continue, Connect, etc.). The signaling interaction device layer issues signaling according to the results returned by the integrated billing system, and no longer performs service control logic processing, billing and account processing functions.

[0120] 3) The signaling interaction device does not need to access data related to s...

Embodiment 3

[0140] like Figure 7 Shown is the system architecture of the telecommunications service convergence billing of the present invention Figure three , the converged billing device layer under this system architecture is described as follows:

[0141] same Figure 4 As shown in the converged billing system architecture 1, Figure 7 The shown converged billing system architecture 3 also has the following characteristics:

[0142]1) The integrated billing system is a set of system entities, including software systems, database systems, and computer equipment; multiple computer equipment and multiple software modules can work together; each software module is based on the same set of users, accounts, tariffs and other data together to complete the integrated charging function, which can support offline charging and online charging at the same time, can support pre-paid and post-paid at the same time, and can support charging of various services in CS domain, PS domain, and IMS d...

Abstract

A telecommunication service charging system and method include configuring merge charging system in telecommunication service charging system; merge charging system obtaining charging data recording from switched service equipment, directly or indirectly making interaction with switched service equipment, combining off line charging and on-line charging mode, or prepaid and after payment mode to make merge charging. Said merge charging system can be based same set of user, account, and expenses data; said switched service equipment can be circuit domain, grouping domain or IP multimedia subsystem domain switched service equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of telecommunications, in particular to a telecommunications service charging system and method. Background technique [0002] At present, there are two billing architectures in the telecommunications field, one is offline billing based on CDR (Charging Data Record) adopted by BOSS (Business and Operation Support System), and the other is based on information Online billing of order messages (for example: intelligent network system). [0003] The offline billing adopted by the BOSS system is: after the service provided by the operator to the user (including: voice call service, data business service, etc.), the call bill generated by the switching service equipment, BOSS collects the bill for batch pricing and billing. There is a large delay in billing in this way, and the BOSS has no control over the service during the service process, and overdraft and arrears are prone to occur. Offline billing is usual...
