摘要:
A method for utilizing a Diameter proxy agent to communicate short message service (SMS) messages in a Diameter network includes receiving, from an SMS service center via a Diameter interface, a mobile subscriber location information request message directed to a home subscriber server (HSS), wherein mobile subscriber location information request message is associated with a recipient mobile subscriber. The method further includes querying a number portability database to determine whether the recipient mobile subscriber has been ported to a foreign network and forwarding the mobile subscriber location information request message toward a gateway associated with the foreign network In response to determining the recipient mobile subscriber has been ported to the foreign network. The method also includes, in response to determining the recipient mobile subscriber has not been ported to the foreign network, forwarding the request message to the HSS in the first network or the foreign network.

The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing a thinking Diameter network architecture. A system for providing a thinking Diameter network architecture includes a network event listener for receiving information about network events and for providing a real time or predictive view of network conditions. The system further includes a policy directed software defined network (SDN) controller for, based on the real time or predictive view of network conditions, issuing SDN commands to route Internet protocol (IP) flows to needed network elements and to instruct dynamically configurable network elements to instantiate Diameter resource instances or to allocate hardware among existing Diameter resource instances.

According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for routing Diameter messages. The method includes steps occurring at a Diameter signaling router (DSR) comprising a plurality of Diameter message processors. The method includes receiving a Diameter request message. The method further includes generating a hop-by-hop identifier for identifying a first Diameter message processor of the plurality of Diameter message processors. The method further includes incorporating the hop-by-hop identifier into the Diameter request message. The method further includes routing the Diameter request message to a first Diameter node.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for dynamically controlling congestion in a radio access network are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for dynamically controlling congestion in a radio access network includes a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) for receiving, from a node for communicating with user equipment via a radio access network, admission requests, and, in response to receiving the admission requests, installing, on the node, subscriber-specific policies to control congestion in the radio access network.

According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a system for performing Diameter overload control. The system occurs at a Diameter routing node. The system includes a network interface for receiving a Diameter message. The system also includes a Diameter overload control unit configured to detect an overload condition for a Diameter session associated with the Diameter message and to communicate an indication of the overload condition to a second Diameter node using a Diameter message defined for a purpose other than overload control.

Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing variable rate prepaid telecommunication services utilizing a weighting function are disclosed. The method includes intercepting a signaling message that includes an available credit value associated with a prepaid communications session. A credit adjustment factor based on at least one call parameter associated with the prepaid communications session is determined. The method also includes applying the credit adjustment factor to the available credit value to generate an adjusted available credit value. The signaling message is modified to include the adjusted available credit value.

According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for sharing Diameter binding data. The method includes receiving, by a first Diameter signaling router (DSR), a first Diameter message requiring processing. The method also includes selecting, by the first DSR, a processing element to perform the required processing from a plurality of processing elements. The method further includes routing, by the first DSR, the received first Diameter message to the selected processing element. The method further includes creating, by the first DSR, a binding record associating the selected processing element with information associated with the received first Diameter message. The method further includes communicating, by the first DSR, the binding record to a second DSR.
