GSM/UMTS and EPS networks. The GSM/UMTS and EPS core network charging architecture and principles arespecified in the present document, which thus provides an umbrella for other charging management TSs that specify:
- the content of the CDRs per domain / subsystem /service (offline charging);
- the content of real-time charging events per domain / subsystem /service (online charging);
- the functionality of online and offline charging for those domains / subsystems / services;
- the interfaces that are used in the charging framework to transfer the charging information (i.e. CDRs orcharging events).
The purposes of the present document are:
- to lay down common principles of charging in the network; and
- to specify a logical common charging architecture that applies to all 3GPP domains, subsystems and services.
A set of domain/subsystem/service specific TSs covers the bearer (CS, PS domains), subsystem (IMS) and service(MMS, LCS, PoC, MBMS, SMS, MMTel etc.) levels, respectively, in the TS 32.25x, TS 32.26x and TS 32.27x TSnumber ranges. These TSs describe the mapping of the common architecture specified in the present document onto thespecific domain/subsystem/service and the scenarios and information for online and offline charging that are specific tothe domain/subsystem/service. They are commonly referred to as the middle tier charging TSs.
A set of TSs in the TS 32.28x range covers common services, such as the Advice of Charge service and the TS 32.29xrange covers common aspects , such as CDR parameter and syntax descriptions, online and offline chargingapplications, and the charging interactions within the network (CDR transfer) as well as between the network and theBilling Domain (CDR file transfer).
The complete document structure for these TSs is outlined in the following figure 1.1.
