摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and device for controlling charging in a mobile communication system. The method for controlling charging in a mobile communication system is characterized by comprising the steps of: generating, by a service provider, a sponsor coupon to transmit to a terminal when a sponsor service request transmitted from the terminal is received; receiving, by the terminal, the sponsor coupon to transmit to an operator; setting, by the operator, a filtering and charging rule for sponsor traffic by using the sponsor coupon, and notifying the terminal; requesting, by the terminal, the sponsor service to the service provider again, and receiving a sponsor traffic service from the service provider; and charging, by the operator, the service provider for the sponsor traffic.

A method of controlling use of electronic communication services in an electronic communications network (103), the method comprising: receiving (301) a first credit control request for usage quota from a system providing service (104) for an electronic communication service requested by a first subscriber (101-1); retrieving (302) subscriber account information for the first subscriber (101-1) to be charged for the requested service by a first charging device (105); determining (303a) based on the retrieved subscriber account information at least a second subscriber (102-1) to be charged for at least part of the requested service; determining (303c) a first hash of a rate plan for the first subscriber; setting (305a) a status to indicate that control of the subscriber account information of the first subscriber (101-1) is temporary transferred to the second charging device (106); sending (306) to the second charging device (106) a second credit control request for the electronic communication service (101-1; 102-1), receiving (307) from the second charging device (106): -modified subscriber account information of the first subscriber (101-1) including the requested usage quota; and sending (310) a credit response message including the usage quota to the requesting system providing service (104).
摘要:
The present subject matter relates to a method for charging of calls in a communication network. The method includes, receiving subscription information pertaining to a discretionary charging feature, for a call between a first user and a second user, where the first user is subscribed to a first telecom operator and the second user is subscribed to one of the first telecom operator and a second telecom operator. The method further includes ascertaining whether the second user is subscribed to the discretionary charging feature based on the receiving, and applying discretionary charging for determining call charges for the first user, based on the ascertaining.

The present invention relates to a telecommunication and data communication system including a debiting mechanism and a procedure for debiting. The system (10) includes a base station BS (14), a service network node SGSN (16) connected to said base station BS (14), an internal network (18) connected via said service network node SGSN (16), an external network (22) connected by means of a network interconnection node GGSN (20) with said internal network (18), a service server (24) connected to the external network (22), and a debiting mechanism. The present invention is characterized in that the debiting mechanism makes debiting variations possible, which are depending on the information content in the amount of data that is transmitted, and on to/from which service provider the amount of data is derived/transmitted. In the system according to the invention, the servicre network nodes SGSN (16) and the network interconnection nodes GGSN (20) generate Call Detail Records CDR, which separately account for amounts of data which hs been transmitted to, respective from, the service servers (24) of different service providers, at which a cost division is achieved. In one embodiment of the invention said division of costs is performed by an after-treatment device, and in another by the sevice network nodes SGSN (16) and the network interconnection nodes GGSN (20).

摘要:
A voice communication connection/charging proxy support system includes connection request reception means for receiving at web site a connection request specifying a voice communication call organization from a voice communication connection request organization, call connection means for calling voice telephone apparatuses of the voice communication connection request organization and the voice communication call organization and if response is received from both of them, connecting their voice telephone apparatuses to each other, and charging means for charging a beneficiary organization a communication fee corresponding to a communication time through the voice telephones after the connection. Thus, it is possible to set up by proxy a communication connection between the voice telephone connection request organization and the voice communication call organization and charge a communication fee per unit time almost as the same rate independently of the method of the telephone apparatus of the voice communication connection request organization and that of the voice communication call organization.
