摘要: A packet radio data network includes a gateway node (GGSN), at least one serving node (SGSN) coupled to the gateway node, a plurality of radio access nodes (RAN) coupled to the serving node (SGSN), the packet radio network transporting packet data from an external packet data network. The external packet data network includes, an Internet Service Provider (ISP), to mobile stations (MS) wirelessly attached to radio access nodes (RAN). A mobile station (MS) issues a membership report message requesting content of a specific multicast group, whereupon the gateway node (GGSN) issues a multicast context activation message to the serving node (SGSN). The serving node (SGSN) informs the radio access network (RAN) that the mobile station is joining the respective multicast group and sends a multicast activation response to the gateway node (GGSN).

摘要: The present invention relates to arrangements for charging in a packet switched network. Packets are charged differently dependent on which service flow the packets belong to. The charging system comprises a control system and a serving element residing in a packet forwarding system wherein said control system comprises an account function adapted to manage an account of at least one user and a charging policy decision point arranged to calculate a charging policy for allowed services for the at least one user. Moreover, said serving element comprises a token bucket per user adapted to store reservations received from the account function of the user associated with the token bucket and a charging policy enforcement point arranged to perform charging for a plurality of the allowed services by reducing the stored reservation of the token bucket according to the calculated charging policy.
