Charging Principles
This TS describes the principles of charging and billing for the provision of service and services by a 3G-system. This document elaborates on the charging requirements described in the Charging Principles in 3GPP TS 22.101. It allows the generation of accurate charging information to be used in the commercial and contractual relationships between the parties concerned. The present document is not intended to duplicate existing standards or standards being developed by other groups on these topics, and references these where appropriate.

Charging data description for the Circuit Switched (CS) domain
The GSM and UMTS PLMNs support a wide range of circuit based services. In order to enable operators the ability to provide a commercially viable service there is a need to provide charging functions.

The present document is part of a series of documents specifying charging functionality in UMTS networks. The UMTS charging architecture and principles are specified in 3GPP TS 32.200 which provides an umbrella for other charging documents that specify the structure and content of the CDRs and the interface protocol that is used to transfer them to the collecting node.

The present document specifies the structure and the contents of the CDRs that are collected by the relevant network elements for circuit switched services in 2G (GSM) and 3G (UMTS) networks. It also defines the syntax for the transfer of these CDRs from the collecting nodes to billing post-processing systems using standard file transfer protocols.

Charging data description for the Packet Switched (PS) domain
The GSM and UMTS PLMN support a wide range of packet based services by means of the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), as defined in 3GPP TS 22.060 and 3GPP TS 23.060. In order to enable operators the ability to provide a commercially viable service, there is a need to provide charging functions. For GPRS these functions include the generation of Charging Data Records (CDRs) by the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) and the Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) as well as the transport of these CDRs to a Billing System (BS) through a Charging Gateway Function (CGF).

The present document is part of a series of documents specifying charging functionality in UMTS networks. The UMTS charging architecture and principles are specified in document 3GPP TS 32.200 which provides an umbrella for other charging documents that specify the structure and content of the CDRs and the interface protocol that is used to transfer them to the collecting node. The CDRs content and transport within the PS domain are described in the present document. The CDRs used in the Circuit Switched (CS) domain are specified in document TS 32.205 while CDRs used for application services are defined in document TS 32.235.

Charging Data Description for the IMS
This TS covers both online and offline charging for the IMS. For clarity, the terms Offline Charging and Online charging as applied to the IMS are defined here in clause 3. These definitions are the same as listed in 3GPP TS 32.200. The IMS charging architecture details, requirements, definitions and principles are listed in 3GPP TS 32.200 and therefore are not repeated here. In this document the charging data triggers, message content and format are specified along with the transport of these messages using the Diameter protocol. Details about charging message flows and the definitions of the Diameter AVPs are also included in the present document. This information is divided into two main clauses: Online Charging and Offline Charging.

Charging data description for application services
The present document is part of a series of documents specifying charging functionality in UMTS network with application services. The UMTS core network charging principles are specified in document 3GPP TS 32.200, which provides an umbrella for other charging documents that specify the structure and content of the CDRs and the interface protocol that is used to transfer them to the collecting node. The document structure is defined in figure 1. The CDR content and transport for application services are described in the present document especially for MMS. As the basis and reference for this work is taken the functional description of the MMS specified for stage 1 in 3GPP TS 22.140 and stage 2 in 3GPP TS 23.140.

Charging Architecture and Principles
The GSM/UMTS core network charging architecture and principles are specified in this 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 or charging events).

A set of domain/subsystem/service specific TSs covers the bearer (CS, PS, WLAN domains), subsystem (IMS) and service (MMS, LCS, etc.) levels, respectively, in the 32.25x, 32.26x and 32.27x TS number range. These TSs describe the mapping of the common architecture specified in the present document onto the specific domain/subsystem/service and the scenarios and information for online and offline charging that are specific to the domain/subsystem/service. They are commonly referred to as the "middle tier (charging) TSs".

A set of TSs in the 32.29x range covers common aspects such as CDR parameter and syntax descriptions, online and offline charging applications, and the charging interactions within the network (CDR transfer) as well as between the network and the Billing Domain (CDR file transfer).

- The AoC function that enables the IMS AoC framework.
- Exemplary message flows.
- AoC interface data description.

All terms, definitions and abbreviations used in the present document, that are common across 3GPP TSs, are defined in the 3GPP Vocabulary, TR 21.905. Those that are common across charging management in 3GPP network, services or subsystems are provided in the umbrella document TS 32.240 and may be copied into clause 3 of the present document for ease of reading.

A detailed specification of interfaces between the logical OCS components is also included. The functionality of the OCS, as described in the present document, applies to all charging domains (bearer, session and service). The interfaces connecting to the OCS (e.g. Ro, CAP) are out of the scope of the present document.

Charging Management - Charging Data Record (CDR) File Format and Transfer
This TS specifies the mechanisms used to transfer CDR files from the network to the operator's billing domain (e.g. the billing system or a mediation device). This includes the file transfer procedures and the layout of the CDR files, as well as file meta information and the encoding of the CDRs within the files. The CDR types that can be transported in these files are specified in the respective "middle tier" charging TSs, i.e. 3GPP TS 32.25x - 3GPP TS 32.27x. A definition of the parameters, abstract syntax and encoding rules for these CDR types is specified in 3GPP TS 32.298. Note that the present document, dealing with CDRs, is consequently only concerned with offline charging. A definition of the corresponding 3GPP online charging functionality and applications can be found in 3GPP TS 32.299. Furthermore, 3GPP TS 32.296 specifies the OCS internal charging applications and interfaces.

Charging Management - Charging Data Record (CDR) Parameter Description
This TS specifies the CDR parameters, the abstract syntax and encoding rules for all the CDR types that are defined in the charging management TSs described above. Therefore, it is only applicable to offline charging. The mechanisms used to transfer the CDRs from the generating node to the operator's billing domain (e.g. the billing system or a mediation device) are specified in 3GPP TS 32.297. Further details with respect to the operator's billing domain for offline charging are out of scope of 3GPP standardisation. Note that a generic Diameter application for online charging in 3GPP networks is specified in 3GPP TS 32.299. Furthermore, 3GPP TSs are being created to standardise some technical aspects of the operator's billing domain for online charging, i.e. the Online Charging System (OCS).
