摘要:
Systems and methods may include gathering transaction data from a user's financial account, wherein the user's financial account is a financial institution account that is maintained on behalf of the user, analyzing the transaction data to determine an amount spent per a selected view type, generating a spending chart displaying the amount spent per selected view type, and displaying the spending chart in association with a statement of the user's financial account. The amount spent may be compared to a benchmark, such as a national average, a city average, a state average, similar people as defined by either a similar spend pattern or similar demographics, and a private group.

In a network subscriber system, a method of determining how to monitor whether a subscriber's network usage exceeds a quota for the current billing period. The frequency at which the subscriber's usage data is collected and analyzed during the billing period is based upon the probability the subscriber's network usage exceeds the quota at a given point in time during the billing cycle. Usage data is collected more frequently as the probability increases. Usage analysis is performed if the probability exceeds a threshold.

Embodiments are directed to managing a prepaid server-arbitrated group communication session within a wireless communications system. A server receives, from a session originator, a request to setup a prepaid group communication session with at least one session target, the prepaid group communication session requiring each session participant to have an available prepaid account balance above a threshold level. The server sends a query to an online charging system to determine whether at least the session originator has a prepaid account with an available balance at least equal to the threshold level. The server initiates setup of the requested prepaid group communication session without waiting to receive a response to the query, thereby reducing latency associated with set-up of the prepaid group communication session.

A system and method are described whereby interoperability is facilitated in a 3GPP network environment in combination with DIAMETER policy controls. Such interoperability enables updated policy rules to be fully communicated in on-line charging situations where quota expirations occur. This invention maintains centralized policy control in a 3GPP network with on-line charging.

A method of providing service authorization comprises sending a message from a redirect server to a user terminal including an authorization token. Further, the method comprises detecting and removing the authorization token by a network gateway node from the message before forwarding the message to the user terminal. The method further comprises initiating a service authorization request by the network gateway node towards an online charging system, said request including the authorization token. The redirect server may be a top-up server.

A method conducting a call control for a prepaid subscriber in a digital cluster system is provided, wherein the digital cluster system comprises: a PTT Dispatch Server (PDS), a PTT Home Register (PHR) and a Service Control Point (SCP). The method includes: the cluster prepaid subscriber originates a call and the PDS initiates a call authentication request to the PHR after receiving the call; after the authentication is passed, the PHR returns an authorization information to the PDS; the PDS determines whether to initiate the call to the prepaid subscriber and send the prepaid request to the PHR or merely send the prepaid request to the PHR according to whether the account of the prepaid subscriber has a balance; the PHR initiates a quota application request for the prepaid subscriber to the SCP after receiving the prepaid request from the PDS; the SCP returns the result to the PHR after carrying out the corresponding business; the PHR determines whether to continue the call for the prepaid subscriber or terminate the call according to the information received.
摘要:
A service request (SRV) comprising a second identifier belonging to a collection of identifiers identified by a first identifier (WPSI-1) is rejected (150) or allowed to proceed (145) depending on whether the current usage data (203-21B) stored in relationship with the first identifier reaches a value established by usage limit data (203-21A) stored in relationship with said first identifier. Current usage data is updated (120, 125) according to service requests comprising a second identifier belonging to said collection and allowed to proceed. The usage limit data can state maximum number of simultaneous communications, or maximum number of second identifiers belonging to said collection, and can be dynamically updated (130) according to traffic load conditions in an apparatus of the telecommunications system. The invention prevents overloading resources in telecommunications systems when the number of eventual users can not be foreseen.

The present invention relates to a method for allocating service area identifiers (SAI) for a femto cell (200A) upon the femto cell (200A) being created. According to the method, information is received about detected cells obtained by scanning performed by a femto radio base station (210A) that is serving the femto cell (200A) in addition to information identifying the femto base station (210A) or the femto cell (200A); a request for SAIs, is transmitted to a SAI selection entity (250, 400) based on the received information, and SAIs selected by a selection entity (250) are received together with an associated user type. The identifiers are further allocated for the created femto cell (200A). The present invention also relates to an apparatus (100, 300) and to the selection entity (250, 400).

The invention relates to a method for processing credits to be used by subscribers of communications networks (temporary and permanent provision of chargeless air-time and the possibility of using a network services), subscribers of mobile and other communications, including ip-telephony, with the further credit repayment while a balance replenishment or while paying for communication services in another way. Said invention allows the large number of subscribers of a communication network to obtain a credit by sending a conditional request, formed by a client (or in the name of a client), for obtaining a credit. The inventive method consistsin inputting the request by means of an electronic communication device (a mobile telephone, ATM, a computer and/or any other terminal enabling a conditional request to be transmitted), in transmitting said request to at least one server of a data processing system for carrying out the transaction and in advising the client about said transaction.
