Fixed Telephone Pre-paid Billing Integration Of Operations Research

With China's accelerated urbanization process and people's quality of life improvement, users are increasing demand for communication services, telecommunications, and total annual business maintained a rapid growth momentum. But the attendant risk of high arrears are also increasing. In order to control the arrears, the development of pre-paid users cope with the high risk of arrears effective solution. However, the traditional Intelligent Network-based prepaid billing business because they do not support multiple concurrent calls, do not support multi-service portfolio of bundled packages, and post-paid phones can not provide the same business functions, greatly limits the pre-paid phone services's development.The three telecom operators have started the OCS (OnlineCharg-ingSystem) systems, the integration of solid-shift full-service preparation. OCS system solves the current prepaid systems and post-paid system problem, which combines pre-paid post-paid system and the advantages of the system, eliminating the post-paid system and the shortcomings of pre-paid systems, from the advance to some extent blurred the costs and post-paid line, but also blur the network element and the support systems boundaries.In the integration of billing, each business will achieve a flexible bundle concessions, it will no longer distinguish between postpaid and prepaid. If you can not be achieved convergent billing, in the post-paid (including the prospective pre-paid users) and pre-paid (including OCS users) will exist a gap between users, two kinds of users supported by different billing system implementation, to business development significant constraints, resulting in an increase in administrative costs, so to achieve convergent billing is a general trend.This topic have been proposed, through the traditional pre-paid fixed-line telephone business to conduct in-depth analysis of the problems, combined with Beijing network of telephone network status, identify key technologies to solve the problem, then presents the overall technical program, and in accordance with the overall program of the billing interface protocol functionality and security research and testing, the compatibility of business research and testing, and ultimate success of the research results will be applied to the construction, the successful completion of a pre-paid fixed-line users billing integration effort.After this project, pre-paid platform is only responsible for operations such as call processing and billing functions unrelated to other business functions, the user's billing and account management of information systems by the OCS to complete. OCS for the Beijing Unicom full-service construction of the system has laid a solid technical foundation.
