Description

Resource allocation method and device based on back-calculation billing

technical field

The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a resource allocation method and device based on inverse calculation and charging.

Background technique

Currently, with the emergence of a large number of various value-added services, operators need to reasonably allocate resources to users according to their current balances. Specifically, the usual resource allocation scheme is, according to the user's requested service, allocate the resource corresponding to the requested service with a preset amount of resources, and deduct the corresponding amount from the user's current balance; further, when the user When the current balance of the user is lower than a certain threshold, for example, the user is not enough to allocate the preset amount of resources to the user, then the allocation of resources to the user is refused. It can be seen that based on the above solution, if the current balance of the user is low, even if the current balance of the user is not zero, it cannot conduct any business.

In order to solve the above problems, the existing resource allocation scheme adopts the scheme of reverse calculation charging, that is, the resource allocation method based on reverse calculation calculation, which specifically includes that when the account balance of the contracted user is lower than a certain threshold, according to the user's For the requested service and the corresponding tariff, divide the user's account balance by the unit tariff of the requested service, so as to calculate the resource amount of resources corresponding to the requested service allocated to the user.

Although the above scheme can enable users with low current balances to carry out their requested business this time, based on the above scheme, since the user's balance has been completely used to allocate resources corresponding to the business requested by the user this time, therefore, in this After the first charging request, the user will have no account balance for other services, which reduces the reliability of the resource allocation scheme based on inverse charging.

In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

Fig. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a resource allocation method based on inverse calculation and charging provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 1 , the method includes:

101. According to the charging request of the user, query the currently stored account balance of each user to obtain the current balance α of the user, and the charging request includes the identification of the user and the identification of the requested service.

102. If the user's current balance is not greater than the preset first threshold, then according to the current statistical historical consumption records of the user, obtain the total historical consumption β and the total amount of the user's various businesses within the preset time range. The historical consumption total amount β _i of the above request service.

Wherein, the time range can be set according to a specific calculation strategy. For example, if the time range is set to 2 months to the present, then correspondingly, according to the user's historical consumption records, the user's 2 months to date are obtained. Within a month, the total historical consumption of each business and the total historical consumption of the requested business.

In the above example, it is assumed that in the first month, the consumption amount of the user using service A, B and C is respectively A1, B1 and C1, and in the second month, the consumption amount of using service B, C and D B2, C2, and D2 in turn, and the user's current request service is B, then the total historical consumption of each service by the user within the time range is A1+B1+C1+B2+C2+D2, so The total historical consumption of the above request service is B1+B2. It can be understood that the above examples are only for a more intuitive understanding of the technical solution of this embodiment, and do not limit other specific implementation manners of this embodiment.

Specifically, in practical applications, the historical consumption records of each user may be stored and maintained by the historical consumption record center, and correspondingly, before step 102, the method may further include: sending a query request to the historical consumption record center, so The query request includes the identification of the user; and the historical consumption record of the user currently counted back by the historical consumption record center is received.

103. Calculate the resource amount δ according to the pre-stored unit tariff amount γ _i of the requested service and the inverse formula, wherein the inverse formula is: δ=α×(β _i /β)/γ _i , where γ _i represents the amount that needs to be consumed by allocating resources corresponding to the requested service per unit amount of resources for the user.

In practical applications, the unit tariff amount can be obtained from the pre-stored tariff information of each service. For example, if the requested service is a data service, the unit tariff amount of the data service is expressed as The consumption amount required for megabytes of data flow, for example, 0.3 yuan/megabyte, that is, 0.3 yuan needs to be deducted from the user’s balance for each megabyte of data traffic provided to the user; if the requested service is a short message service, the unit tariff of the short message service The amount represents the consumption amount required for the user to process each text message, for example, 0.1 yuan per text message, that is, 0.1 yuan needs to be deducted from the user's balance to allocate resources for each text message of the user; and so on, the request service can also be Voice services, etc., will not be cited one by one here. The above examples are only for a more intuitive understanding of the technical solution of this embodiment, and do not limit other specific implementation manners of this embodiment.

104. Store α' as the current balance of the user, and allocate resources corresponding to the requested service to the user, and the amount of allocated resources is δ, where α'=α-α×(β _i / β).

Wherein, storing α' as the user's current balance means updating the user's current balance to α'. In addition, in practical applications, the current balance of each user can be uniformly stored and maintained by the account management center, and correspondingly, the α' is stored as the current balance of the user, that is, the α' stored in the account management center The current balance of the user is updated to α'.

Specifically, when the balance of the user is too low, no resources will be allocated to it, and correspondingly, after step 101, the method may further include:

If the current balance of the user is less than a preset second threshold, an insufficient balance message is returned to the user, and the second threshold is less than the first threshold.

The resource allocation method based on inverse charging provided by this embodiment is based on the user's charging request, based on the current statistics of the user's historical consumption records, the unit fee amount of the requested service, and the user's current balance And the inverse calculation formula, calculate the corresponding amount of resources, and allocate the corresponding technical solutions for the resources corresponding to the requested service for the user, so that the user can still carry out other services after this inverse calculation and billing, effectively improving the resources.
