摘要:
A number of gateway objects interconnect circuit switched and packet switched networks, such as the telephone network and the Internet, for example to enable telephony communication across the combined networks. A directory object coupled to the packet network provides address translation capability, and the directory object polls or communicates with the gateways to provide an intelligent selection of one of the gateway objects, typically for egress to the telephone network. The system also includes an authorization control object. After gateway selection, a calling terminal attempts communication through the gateway object. The gateway object then queries the authorization control object, which instructs the gateway object to proceed only if the requested communication between the calling terminal and the destination terminal is authorized.

A user tag addition apparatus adds user tags, each of which includes an organization code and a unit price code, to respective service use requests. A service execution apparatus executes provision services based on service use requests, associates the usages of a resource used for the execution of the provision services with the corresponding user tags, and registers the associated information in use result information. A charge calculation apparatus calculates charges for the provision services for each organization based on unit price information corresponding to the unit price codes indicated in the user tags registered in the use result information and the usages of the resource associated with the user tags.

Methods and apparatus for supporting customer charging in 5G networks are provided. Monitoring functions are instantiated at selected network locations for tracking access to network services. The monitoring functions provide charging information for use in customer billing. A customer can enter a service level agreement with a particular customized method of charging for service usage, and the monitoring functions can be customized to provide charging information according to the service level agreement. Charging can vary based on factors such as time of day, network congestion, service traffic characteristics, and geographic location. Charging can be reduced by a customer voluntarily reducing service quality, and/or if access is through a Wi-Fi network. Customers can dynamically control traffic to control charging. Charging rates under high-demand conditions can be negotiated via bidding. User-in-the-loop charging can be performed. Charging options for functions such as VNFaaS functions, data caching, pre-fetching, and context sharing are also provided.

The invention relates to a method for providing information on at least one communication type for a communication service to a user terminal wherein a request of a communication service with a subscriber information is received; a first inquiry to an application server is generated; a second inquiry to a register is generated; at least one communication type meeting criterion is determined; a data record for providing information on the determined at least one communication type is generated and transmitted to the user terminal requesting the communication service. The invention also relates to a network node implementing the method and a computer program product.

A radio communication control device accepts a call-up from a radio communication terminal and includes a unit configured to detect the degree of jamming in a cell, a unit configured to confirm the intention of a user of a terminal concerned as to whether the call-up is continued regardless of addition of an extra to the user's telephone call charge when the call-up has been made from a radio communication terminal in the cell concerned in a specific jammed state, a unit configured to block the call-up concerned in accordance with the confirmed intention of the user of the terminal concerned and a unit configured to change charge setting so as to add an extra to the user's telephone call charge when the call-up has not been blocked in the specific jammed state.
摘要:
An environment is described in which a processing system provides application-level usage information to users. In one scenario, for example, the processing system may provide personal usage information to a user who is operating a user device. The personal usage information itemizes the amount of data (and/or other resources) that has been consumed by each application run by the user device. In another scenario, the processing system may provide expected usage information associated with at least one candidate application provided by a marketplace system. The expected usage information describes an expected consumption of data (and/or other resources) by the candidate application upon running the candidate application by the user device. The processing system can tailor the expected usage information that it sends to a particular user based on user profile data. The user profile data describes a manner in which users operate applications.
摘要:
A system and method that facilitates mobile device selection among available qualities of service is described herein. A mobile device presents a user interface to enable selection of change to a current quality of service on the mobile device. The user interface further enables selection of one or more parameters associated with the selected change to the current quality of service. In response to the selection, the mobile device transmits to the telecommunications network the selected change in quality of service. The mobile device then receives the selected change in quality of service if the telecommunications network is able to accommodate the selected change.

In order to edit, in a transmission-efficient manner, multimedia news before sending or receiving such news, the existing user data volume (VOL) of a piece of multimedia news (MM) is determined prior to, during, and after putting together such piece of multimedia news (MM). At least one application reducing the original user data volume (VOL) of such piece of multimedia news (MM) is supplied and run in case a predefined user data volume threshold (SGx) or an upper price limit (SPx) is exceeded.
