- the server AF of the operator network transmits the information about the sponsored traffic to the policy charging rule function (PCRF) entity that controls the policy.
- PCRF policy charging rule function
- the PCRF forwards the message to the Packet Data Network Gateway (PGW) that generates the actual charging record so that the charging record is created with the sponsor's ID for sponsored traffic.
- PGW Packet Data Network Gateway
- the PGW then creates a charging record for sponsored traffic with a sponsored ID instead of a user ID. That is, the PGW charges a third party, not UE 100, for sponsored traffic.
- the solution for extending the policy charging control structure as shown in FIG. 3 may cause the following issues.
- the third-party server must deliver information about the traffic to be sponsored and a signal to indicate the start and end of sponsored traffic to the PGW that generates the charging data. For this reason, the third party server must have a connection with the server connected to the PGW in the operator network.
- the third party server When a third party performs a global service, as shown in FIG. 4, all connections must be made with the servers of the operator, and a related signal must be transmitted to the servers of the operator whenever sponsor traffic occurs.
- the third party since the non-SIP ASP and AF of FIG. 3 are currently out of scope in the 3GPP standard, the third party must support all the other preparatory protocols supported by the operator servers. N: M connection).
- the session that sent the traffic to be sponsored by the third party server must be fixed. It is necessary to fix the address and port of the server to which the traffic will be transmitted, and to set this static information statically in the PGW so that the traffic occurs, the traffic should be charged with the sponsored ID. However, to do this, the address and port of the server to which the traffic should be fixed must be fixed. However, in this case, if the third party is not a big service provider, the central data center (CDF) or internet data center (IDC) is used.
