8 IMS online charging architecture

9 S-CSCF <-> SCF Online Charging SCF looks like any other AS to the S-CSCF SCF dose not provide services for user in the usual sense. SCF reports accounting information to the Correlation Function. If the user runs out of credit CF informs the SCF SCF terminates the session by acting as a B2BUA

10 Online Charging AS and the MRFC <-> ECF AS or the MRFC receives the address of the ECF from the S-CSCF in the P-Charging-Function- Address header field

11 Online Charging Ro interface IEC Based on Diameter Accounting-Request and Answer (ACR,ACA) Immediate Event Charging - IEC Accounting-Record-Type: EVENT_RECORD ECUR Event Charging with Unit Reservation - ECUR Accounting-Record-Type: START_RECORD, INTERIM_RECORD, STOP_RECORD

20 Presence and Instant Messaging and conferencing in IMS

21 Presence as a catalyst of other services Many services can take advantage of presence info ad hoc conference, PoC, IM, active address list

22 Presence in IMS IMS terminal plays role of both the watcher and PUA (Presence User Agent) PA is an AS located in the home network Resource List Server (RLS) implemented as AS Functional component accepting and managing presence list subscriptions which enables Watcher applications to subscribe presence info of many presentities using single transaction

30 Presence Optimizations Optimizations High Notification Rates Event throttling Presence Optimizations Partial Notification Event Notification Filtering The IMS networks and terminals implement all the extensions

31 The Ut Interface Runs between an IMS terminal and an Application Server The Ut interface is implemented with HTTP XML Configuration Access Protocol (XCAP)

32 Pager mode Instant Messaging 3GPP TS standard requires IMS terminals to implement MESSAGE method RFC 3428 Optional service feature in S-CSCF and AS Constraints eg. Message size Main goal Enabling S-CSCF or AS to send instant messages to IMS terminals Example AS performs role of a controller in a voice mail service Notification of the user by AS about waiting messages Implementation Registration S-CSCF analyzes ifc S-CSCF sends 3rd party REGISTER message to a selected AS After reception of the REGISTER request, the AS generates MESSAGE request with notification (text info, link,.) MESSAGE transferred via S-CSCF and P-CSCF as each SIP message

35 Instant Messaging - session model Instant messaging session initiated by INVITE with SDP media definition for IM Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP) for transport of messages Two scenarios 1. Terminal IMS establishes a session SIP messages transferred via IMS nodes 2. MRFC i MRFP act as middlemen Charging based on message size or content (MRSP SEND) MRF as chat room server multiparty conference MRSP: VISIT, OK, SEND Later the second user joins the conference and establishes the second session with MRFC
