摘要:
A policy control method for a converged network comprises: in a roaming scenario, after learning that a user equipment (UE) accesses a mobile network through a wireless local area network (WLAN) access, a visited policy and charging rules function (V-PCRF) establishing a subsession serving WLAN Offload when establishing an S9 session to a home policy and charging rules function (H-PCRF), and carrying a WLAN Offload instruction. With the present document, the WLAN offload data can be distinguished from data routed back to an EPC network in the roaming scenario, thereby delivering policy control for the WLAN offload data.

A system, method, and computer program for billing wireless device subscribers for their interaction with applications and services resident on third party computer devices that are accessible through a wireless network. The wireless devices, such as cellular telecommunication devices, communicate with other computer devices across a wireless network and an end-user thereof, who is not necessarily the subscriber for the wireless service, can selectively download and execute software applications. Third party computer devices, such as application download servers, arc accessible on the wireless network and selectively provide applications and services to the wireless devices, and the interaction of the wireless devices with the third party computer devices causes billable events to occur, and a billing server gathers the billable event data, generates billing for the wireless device subscribers, and effects payment of the third parties for billable events at the computer devices of that third party.

A converged network accessible by client terminals is provided. The converged network includes a wide area network, a local area network, and a gateway linked to the wide area and local area networks. The gateway integrates billing and authentication functions of the wide area and local area networks.

The invention relates to the billing of wireless local area network, discloses wireless local area network prepaid billing system and method, enables the prepaid user to access wireless local area network and implements the real time billing to the user. The wireless local area network prepaid billing method transfers the billing information sent by authentication control point to serve control point through authentication server, serve control point executes pre-deducting or refuses the user using wireless? Local area network serve according to account balance and strategy designated in advance, and returns the result to authentication control point through authentication server.

A wireless monitoring module monitors a performance of a wireless data device. The module, which is executed by the wireless data device, sends an application request at predetermined time intervals. The module receives a response from the request. If the response is successful, there is either no error, or an application problem, depending on the content of the response. If the response is an error, the module determines whether the error is due to a network problem or a wireless gateway problem.

An apparatus and systems for providing wireless access to packet data networks (24) and a value added services is disclosed. The wireless access integrated node (WAIN) (100) offers internal architecture which eliminates unnecessary intermediate protocols contained in a multinode network. WAIN (100) provides local radio coverage through radio interface (30). WAIN comprises a data base (26) containing user charging information. A central controller to collect (140) charging data and charging information for the mobile users.

The present invention discloses an interactive method for a WLAN UE accessing a new operation network, which comprises: when the WLAN UE which has accessed a Visited Mobile Communication Network needs to re-select another Visited Mobile Communication Network to access, the WLAN UE sending authentication information to a Home Network of the WLAN UE through a WLAN Access Network and the Visited Mobile Communication Network newly selected by the WLAN UE; after receiving the authentication information, the Home Network of the WLAN UE authenticate the WLAN UE according to the authentication information via the Visited Mobile Communication Network newly selected by the WLAN UE, and sending an access instruction to the WLAN Access Network through the Visited Mobile Communication Network; and On receiving the access instruction, the WLAN Access Network completing disconnection and/or access between the WLAN UE and the corresponding Visited Mobile Communication Networks. The method enables a WLAN UE to reselect another Visited Mobile Communication Network after accessing a Visited Mobile Communication Network.
摘要:
A user can gain access a Local Area Network (LAN) on a fee basis without the risk of having to transmit an un-encrypted PIN at upon initial access. The user initially sends a request to the LAN identifying a Billing Agent that maintains an account associated with the user for payment of LAN access charges. In practice, the account can be take the form of a pre-paid account identified only by a PIN known to the user. After the user has identified the Billing Agent, the LAN queries the Billing Agent for its digital certificate, which the LAN forwards to the user. The user utilizes the certificate to encrypt a PIN for transmission via the LAN to the Billing Agent for authentication. Upon successful authentication the Billing Agent authorizes the LAN to grant access to the user, thus allowing the user to obtain a connection via the LAN to private network or a public network .
