Convergence – Intelligent System, Mobile Data Charging, AI and PCRF

Deep packet inspection (DPI) to gain actionable intelligence on traffic flows. Policy rules to define how to manage traffic based on information gathered through DPI, network resources, subscriber profiles, and offered services. Policy enforcement to implement policy at a granular level in real-time across the network, applying policy rules to DPI data.

PCRF the Liberator for Mobile Data Charging

HSS basically plays its main function of authenticating the LTE subscribers with IMSI as the primary key for SAE-HSS and IMPU (IMS Public ID) + IMPI (IMS Private ID) for IMS VoLTE authentication. SPR is the repository for the subscriber’s policies and profiles for QoS management. Both HSS and SPR are the front-end elements because the back-end element, i.e., UDR, is the database that stores all information.

MNO Charging & Billing Systems

Telecom subscribers are getting smarter (so it’s not only the handset which is getting smarter haan!!!), demanding more and more and, at the same time many new players are entering the marketplace. To compete in this environment, operators have to not only maintain but also grow their part of the new value chain to gain loyal customers and adding new blended services which are ridding on their investment/infrastructure made during all those time

Mobile Data Charging – Who moved my Cheese?

Time started for MNO to take charge and start innovating in order to survive. They also realise that they themselves are responsible for cannibalising their own voice revenue by encouraging revenue share based VAS services from VAS service providers rather than affiliating with OTT players.

Convergent Billing- As One Product Catalog

Convergent Billing – Online and offline charging are integral capabilities in any MNO/MVNO setup. Prepaid services always need online charging for real-time service authorization, rating and […]

Convergence: ePayments, MFS, AI and IN Systems

Market dynamics are evolving, especially with mobile network operator market restructuring and prepaid market changes. A more drastic change in the SIM market was triggered by Apple’s eSIM announcement, which is aimed at adding more value to its own platform. MNOs typically have many platforms, starting with IN (OCS), billing, electronic recharge, physical vouchers, mobile money, mobile banking, and mobile financial and commerce services systems.

2015 Year Of Convergence – MFS, IN with AI and Data Science

The 3GPP OCS is heading toward multiple charging access provisions for networks bearing different services. To meet network evolution demands, the OCS’s internal components should be further abstracted and modularized. Payments from various channels, i.e., proximity (POS, mPOS, NFC, thin SIM, ultrasound), the Internet, USSD, SMS, ATM, or agents, can be embedded as separate modules that will keep a tap and record of each transaction, create temporary wallets in buffers before moving to actual wallets, move temporary wallets from buffer to trash, and write logs.

Online Charging System

Online Charging System | Powerful and Modern

Online charging (based on the Ro and CAP interfaces) and offline charging (based on the Rf interface) describe the interaction between NEs and charging systems. Postpaid and prepaid indicate the interaction between account balance and user payment. As a result, user experience-based concepts—i.e., prepaid, postpaid, near real-time, and real-time—can be seamlessly mirrored to network-based concepts such as online and offline charging. Flexible maintenance and configuration through a web-based portal and support for multiple interfaces to external systems such as CRM, billing, etc.

Prepaid Mobile Charging Systems

The charging system originally formed part of the support network and can be regarded as a supporting platform for networks or services. In a converged environment, the charging system is unable to complete the entire charging process. Many network evolutions, however, are stimulated by changes in charging requirements.
