CHARGING METHOD AND DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18623964 titled 'CHARGING METHOD AND DEVICE
Simplified Explanation: This patent application describes a method for roaming charging in the context of local breakout roaming charging. When a roaming user initiates a data connection session, the visited network's charging trigger device identifies the user as roaming and coordinates with both the visited network's roaming charging system and the home network's charging function to create charging resources and facilitate charging requests.
- The method involves a charging trigger device determining a user as a roaming user during a data connection session initiation.
- The charging trigger device sends requests to both the visited network's roaming charging system and the home network's charging function to create charging resources.
- Charging requests are then sent to both the visited network's roaming charging system and the home network's roaming charging system to facilitate charging for the roaming user.
Key Features and Innovation: - Roaming charging method for local breakout roaming charging - Coordination between visited network and home network for charging resources - Charging trigger device identifies roaming user and initiates charging process
Potential Applications: - Telecommunications industry for roaming charging - Mobile network operators for efficient charging processes - Roaming services for seamless user experience
Problems Solved: - Simplifies charging process for roaming users - Ensures accurate charging for roaming services - Improves efficiency in charging resource creation
Benefits: - Enhanced user experience for roaming customers - Streamlined charging process for network operators - Accurate and efficient charging for roaming services
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized by mobile network operators to improve charging processes for roaming users, enhancing customer satisfaction and operational efficiency in the telecommunications industry.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to roaming charging methods in the telecommunications field to understand the evolution of charging processes for roaming users.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest research in roaming charging methods and technologies to enhance knowledge and implementation of efficient charging processes for roaming users.
Questions about Roaming Charging: 1. How does this method improve the charging process for roaming users? 2. What are the key benefits of implementing this roaming charging method?
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of this application provide a roaming charging method, applied to the field of local breakout roaming charging. The method includes: A charging trigger device of a visited network receives a creation request of a data connection session, determines that a user of the data connection session is a roaming user, and sends a first charging resource creation request to a roaming charging system of the visited network, receives a first charging resource creation response message, sends a second charging resource creation request to a charging function of a home network of the roaming user, and receives a second charging resource creation response message. Then, the charging trigger device of the visited network sends a first charging request to the roaming charging system of the visited network and sends a second charging request to a roaming charging system of the home network. This method can implement local breakout roaming charging.
