Description of drawings
For understanding the present invention better, only the invention will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the mode of embodiment below, wherein:
Fig. 1 is the flow chart of the charging method of support internet terminal of the present invention.
Embodiment
Among the present invention, URI is used as the sign of user or service terminal, and user URI refers to the URI of user's terminal of using in the process of once obtaining service.The general format of user's (also can regard service side as) URI is: userinfo@host:port; Uri-parameters, wherein, userinfo comprises a user name in order to identifying user usually, also can comprise the required user password of user's service of obtaining; The address information that host is to use IP address or domain name to represent, it can be used for the position at identifying user place; Port has indicated this user in order to receive the port of message.
The key that user and/or service URI analyze is, the IP address and the domain name at user and/or service place is mapped as understandable area information.Here, the zone refers to region notions such as country, area.For example, area information can with country number, area code and local office number represent, can be with the initial conditions of area information as the subsequent charging operation.
With reference to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 is the flow chart of the charging method of support internet terminal of the present invention.At first, at step S11, in database, set up the mapping relations between URI address and the area information, this step can pre-defined IP address or domain name to the rule of zone mapping, adopt database table that this rule is kept in the software systems, preferably, can adopt relation database table; Next, at step S12, inquiry unit utilizes the address information of user and/or service internet terminal URI to inquire about this database, determine the area information of user and service, in this step, as initial conditions, inquiry obtains The corresponding area information to described inquiry unit from this database with user and/or the service IP address at place or domain name; At last, at step S13, user's message accounting just can be continued to use charging regulation, charging policy and budget and the calculation process of existing intelligent networks (in) according to the area information of user and service, and the user is chargeed.Here, for the situation of user or service side's use telecommunication terminal, still determine its area information according to number.
There are two kinds of different name classifications in domain name: geographical name classification and tissue name classification.For the IP address with adopt the domain name of geographical name classification, the regional feature that can have according to itself, with its be mapped as country number, area informations such as area code.For example, for the user of Longgang District, Shenzhen and Chaoyang District, Beijing City, the mapping relations between its domain name or IP address and the zone, adopt relation database table to be expressed as follows:
| Domain name | National number | The ground area code | Local office number |
| longgang.sz.cn | 86 | 755 | 2 |
| 192.128.11.2 | 86 | 755 | 2 |
| chaoyang.bj.cn | 86 | 10 | 2 |
| 192.128.10.2 | 86 | 10 | 2 |
For the domain name that adopts tissue name classification, because it does not have tangible regional feature, can become certain area information according to its tissue signature, for example national number, area code, local office number, these numbers can be virtual, non-existent number in the promptly actual telecommunication specification coding.Here, tissue refers to sense of organization notions such as school, company.Why adopt country number, area code, local office number such region number represent, be for simplify software realize to go up or specifically implement and safeguard in workload.For example, for department of mathematics of Tsing-Hua University and department of mathematics of Peking University, they are structural divisions, can be distributed in different regions, thereby do not have tangible regional feature.Yet, can they be become certain area information by disposing following data, as virtual country number, area code, local office number:
| Domain name | National number | The ground area code | Local office number |
| math.tsinghua.edu | 86 | 91 | 1 |
| math.beiking.edu | 86 | 92 | 2 |
Be noted that the zone be not limited to above-mentioned with country number, area code, local office number represent, and can adopt other any forms that can represent the zone.Especially, the zone can have hierarchy, so that operator sets charging regulation flexibly, charges thereafter.For example, but the zone abstractdesription is information such as level-1 area number, level-2 area number, tertiary zone number, and corresponding charging regulation also needs to use identical zone to represent.
Below, charging regulation, charging policy and budget and the calculation process of existing intelligent networks (in) are done simple description.Charging regulation is under certain business, according to the user with serve the country one belongs to number, area code, local office number different, and carry out the set of rule that Different Strategies is chargeed.Continue above-mentioned example, arrive Pekinese's domestic trunk call for Shenzhen, and the calling between Tsing-Hua University and the Peking University, their charging regulation is expressed as follows, and here, caller can be regarded the user side as, the called service side that regards as:
| Caller ground area code | Called ground area code | The charging policy index |
| 755 | 10 | 1 |
| 91 | 92 | 2 |
Below be a example by the charging policy of duration charging:
| The charging policy index | Rate (branch/second) |
| 1 | 15 |
| 2 | 10 |
As the real time billing solution of supporting the Internet and telecommunication intelligent network termination simultaneously, also need to have following characteristic: support international call, domestic trunk call, local call; Support to press the duration charging, press the access times charging, press and jump time charging; And the user flexibility configuration of supporting charging regulation and charging policy data.
At last before calling out beginning or in the calling procedure, calculate holding time of calling in advance in advance, be used for prepayment service according to the charging policy of calling and user's account balance.Calculating is the expense that goes out to call out according to the duration calculation that the charging policy of calling out and user use service.
Application scenarios of the present invention is exemplified below, and for the charging that the user obtains basic session services, needs telephone number or the URI of difference analysis user A and user B, obtains area information.According to the area information of caller (user A) and called (user B), the inquiry charging regulation draws the charging policy of this service again, to realize the charging to user A.For example, user A uses URI to be sip:
001@1g.sz.cnInternet terminal insert 200 business as caller, it is called that its is called out is 075525678001.URI to user A analyzes, obtain its correspondence country number, area code, local office number be respectively 86,755,1, by the number of user B learn its correspondence country number, area code, local office number be respectively 86,755,2, then show the calling of this calling for local different interoffices, the inquiry charging regulation draws charging policy, is to charge according to 0.2 yuan/minute.According to the account information of user A, can calculate the duration of call in advance, thereby realize pre-payment; The duration that the service of obtaining is promptly called out according to user A can carry out accurate billing to user A.Similarly, the present invention can be used for the user and obtains occasions such as CRBT service, conference service and group user charging.
Though in above-mentioned Application Scenarios-Example, only use internet terminal, service to use the situation of terminal for telecommunications network to be described with the URI sign to the user, but, the present invention also can be used for the user and uses terminal for telecommunications network, service to use the situation of the internet terminal that identifies with URI, and user and serve both sides and all use situation with the internet terminal of URI sign, this is understandable to those skilled in the art.
Obviously, the present invention described here can have many variations, and this variation can not be thought and departs from the spirit and scope of the present invention.Therefore, the change that all it will be apparent to those skilled in the art all is included within the covering scope of these claims.
