摘要： The disclosure provides a method for supporting multiple time zones in an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). The method comprises: a Proxy Call Session Control Function (PCSCF) network element sends a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message including time zone information to a control layer network element exclusive of the PCSCF network element (201); after obtaining the time zone information, the control layer network element receiving the SIP message sends an SIP message including the time zone information to a service layer network element (202); and the service layer network element receives the SIP message sent from the control layer network element and obtains the time zone information included in the SIP message (203). The disclosure also provides a system for supporting multiple time zones, a charging method and a charging system in an IMS. Through the solution of the disclosure, the time zone information can be transferred to each network element above in the IMS, and local time of a user in a call can be included in a Charging Data Record (CDR), thus, the accuracy of charging is improved.

摘要： A calling subscriber, in dialing a special code before a subscriber number, causes a renunciation character to be stored in a trunk exchange to provide him with priority in trunk line selection, when reduced charge metering equipment, is in operation; otherwise, priority is equal for all calls. Upon completion of trunk connection on a priority basis, a charge reduction signal is transmitted to the charge metering equipment. If all trunks are busy, a priority call is provided with a predetermined number of repeated trunk selection cycles.

摘要： A system for monitoring phone numbers includes a computing device having at least one processor and memory associated with the processor. A telephone network supports a plurality of telephone numbers. For each of the phone numbers, the computing device is configured to detect call activity involving the phone number during a detection period having a preselected duration, determine an answer seizure ratio (ASR) for the phone number during the detection period from the call activity, determine a difference between the ASR during the detection period and an ASR from at least one previous detection period for the phone number, and determine whether the difference satisfies at least one preselected criterion. When the criterion is satisfied, the computing device instigates a procedure to investigate or repair the phone number.

摘要： By coupling a rating engine with call processing, rating rules are generated that enable a flexible interface between call process and call rating without necessitating that fixed data be passed between them. The real time charging system (RCS) provides a process that creates a generic entity, called a bucket, and uses it to keep track of account information and/or to count types of usage. The bucket allows an operator to define accounts and usage counters and how they are used as part of the rating rules. Use of these buckets is defined in rating rules, thus turning control over subscriber account and usage counters to the network operator. Further, the RCS provides a calendar option for limiting times during which calls to general telephone numbers can be made or received.

摘要： A communication device, method and system in which tariff information is provided to a communication device from a control station at call setup, and the charges associated with a call can be calculated and displayed to a device user at the device itself, rather than at a central communication system processor. The tariff information includes the current tariff, future tariff, and time of tariff switch. By providing the tariff information to the communication device, significant signal processing resources at the central communication system processor can be saved.

摘要： Apparatus and methods are provided to connect a call between two parties located at different time zones having different calling costs. The calling costs, which relate to tariffed calling rates, are compared to determine which location has the more economical cost of placing the call. The call is then originated from the location having the lower cost.
