6.1.3.9 Supplementary service actions

A supplementary service record may be produced in the NEF of the appropriate MSC or HLR for each supplementary service action (activation, deactivation, invocation etc.) performed or initiated by the subscriber.

– There are two fundamental types of SS-actions: Call related i.e. as a result of a connection,
e.g. Invocation of CLIP / CLIR / AoC, etc.

– Non-call related i.e. as a result of Subscriber Controlled Input (SCI) e.g. Registration of call forwarding.

Each supplementary service action shall be performed on one or more basic service groups. If the action applies to all teleservices and all bearer services (i.e. to all basic services) then the basic services field shall be omitted.

SCI actions may be recorded in individual SS-action records. Call related actions may be recorded in either the appropriate call record (MOC/MTC) or in separate SS-action records.

Additional non-standard supplementary service actions may be made available within some networks in the form of Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD). These actions may also be recorded in SS-action records. However, as these actions are non-standard they may not include an appropriate action type, supplementary service code or basic service code.

6.1.3.23 Mobile originated call attempt (CAMEL CPH adapted version)

If the MSC / gsmSCF is able to provide CAMEL CPH services, this kind of record shall replace records according to clause 6.1.3.1 "Mobile originated call attempt". This applies to all mobile originated call attempts, even if no CPH operations are used in the individual call. Record fields that are specific to individual outgoing legs are recorded in the grouped field "CAMEL Call Leg Information".

If the generation of this kind of record is enabled then the MSC shall produce one MOC record. The incoming leg is recorded in the main body. Whenever there is a CAMEL dialogue, outgoing legs of the same call segment are recorded in the grouped field "CAMEL call leg information". Further legs in new call segments are recorded in CDRs of type "6.1.3.25 New Call Segment in a MO, CF or MT CAMEL Dialogue".

Examples for call situations where this type of record applies are the following:

– Mobile originating call without CPH being involved,

– Mobile originating call continuing after disconnect of the incoming leg in case of no partial record generation.
When partial records are generated, they are of type "6.1.3.25 New Call Segment in a MO, CF or MT CAMEL Dialogue",

– Mobile originating call with more than one outgoing leg on this call segment,

– Mobile originating call in which the original outgoing leg has been disconnected by gsmSCF.

Disconnect of the incoming leg is recorded by filling the related record fields in the main body of the record. Optionally a partial record may be generated. This partial record is of type "6.1.3.24 gsmSSF initiated CAMEL CPH call attempt".

Disappearing (DisconnectLeg, SplitLeg, etc.) of an outgoing leg is recorded by filling the related record fields in the "CAMEL Call Leg Information" field for the disappearing leg. Optionally a partial record may be generated. This partial record does not contain information of the leg that disappeared, i.e. it does not contain a "CAMEL Call Leg Information" field for that leg.

Connection of a further leg to this call segment is recorded by adding a further field "CAMEL Call Leg Information". Optionally a partial record may be generated.

There is only one call segment. It contains the outgoing leg, which is created via CPH Initiate Call Attempt operation (ICA).

– This outgoing leg can be connected to an SRF, which is recorded in the same record in the field "CAMEL Call Leg Information".

– gsmSCF initiated new party in an already established gsmSCF initiated CAP dialogue (new leg):
In a new call dialogue a further call leg in a new call segment is initiated via ICA operation.

– This call segment contains one outgoing leg, which can be connected to an SRF. This leg and if used the SRF are recorded in the record for this call segment in the field "CAMEL Call Leg Information".

– This leg can be connected to the other outgoing leg. This would terminate the call segment and thus the call record.

6.1.3.25 New Call Segment in a MO, CF and MT CAMEL Dialogue

If the generation of these records is enabled then an MOC record shall be created for call segments without incoming leg, generated by a CAMEL dialogue for mobile originated, call forwarding or mobile terminating call attempts. Examples for call situations where this type of record applies are the following:

– Additional call segment, which is created by means of a "SplitLeg" operation or ICA (new party) operation.

– This call segment contains one outgoing leg, which can be connected to an SRF. This leg and if used the SRF are recorded in the record for this call segment in the field ‘Camel Call Leg Information’.

– This leg can be connected to the other outgoing leg. This would terminate the call segment and thus the call record. The "Cause for Termination" indicates the reason for disappearing of the leg in this call segment. The Timestamps ("Call Duration", "Release Time", etc.) are filled in. The record of the call segment the leg is moved to records the leg in a further field ‘Camel Call Leg Information’.

– The other leg could be connected to this leg which is recorded by adding a further field "CAMEL Call Leg Information".

– Call segment where the incoming leg disappeared (e.g. due to SplitLeg or DisconnectLeg operation). A record of this type is generated if partial records are generated.

Although an incoming leg does not exists, the "IMSI", the "IMEI" and the "Service Key" is recorded in the main body.

6.2 Data description for CS domain online charging

6.2.0 General

CS domain charging is implemented by CAMEL techniques as described in TS 23.078 [67] and TS 29.078 [73], i.e. it is outside the scope of the 3GPP 32-series charging TSs.

6.2.1 Diameter message contents

Void (refer to clause 6.2.0).

Annex A (informative):
CDR File Transfer compliant with earlier 3GPP releases

This group of TMN functions is concerned with the bulk transfer of call and event records from the NEF record filestore to the NEF.

The call and event records shall be transferred from the NEF to the OSF by the use of FTAM protocol on X.25 or TCP/IP, and FTP or TFTP over TCP/IP. For further details of the use of FTAM see GSM 12.01 [297] and of the use of FTP see RFC 959 [400] and TFTP see [401].

In addition to the simple file transfer services provided by FTAM, peer-to-peer application process communication may be also be supported. The use of CMIS services for the uploading of files from the NEF to the OSF is specified in GSM 12.00 [296].

Annex B (informative):
Bibliography

This Annex is a placeholder for documents which are not explicitly cited in this specification.

Annex C (informative):
Charging support for Voice Call Continuity (VCC)

VCC is a home IMS application that provides capabilities to transfer voice calls between the CS domain and the IMS. VCC provides functions for voice call originations, voice call terminations and for domain transfers between the CS domain and the IMS. This feature is defined in TS 23.206 [210].

The following principles apply to VMSC/GMSC that are capable of VCC:

In case of CS Origination call with anchoring in the IMS, the Access Leg is charged as follows: Normal MOC CDR is generated by the VMSC with special handling. One example of special handling is to zero rate the CS resource usage. This can be performed using the "Service Key" parameter in the MOC Record indicating a VCC call. The CDRs generated within the IMS domain to complete the anchoring mechanism are handled as specified in TS 32.260 [55].

In case of IMS origination call, the Access Leg is charged as follows: Normal IMS and IP-CAN (e.g. WLAN or GSM/GPRS) charging mechanism are applied. These mechanisms are defined in TS 32.260 [55] and IP-CAN Middle Tier TS respectively.

In case of Incoming call received via CS and routed to IMS, the Remote Leg is charged as follows: Normal MTC CDRs are generated by the GMSC of the terminating network with special handling. One example of special handling is to zero rate the CS resource usage. This can be performed using the "Service Key" parameter in the MTC Records indicating a VCC call. The CDRs generated within the IMS domain to complete the domain selection procedure are handled as specified in TS 32.260 [55].

In case of Incoming call received via CS and routed to CS with anchoring, the Remote Leg is charged as follows: Normal MTC CDRs are generated by the GMSC and the VMSC in the terminating network with special handling. One example of special handling is to zero rate the CS resource usage. This can be performed using the "Service Key" parameter in the MTC Records indicating a VCC call. The CDRs generated within the IMS domain to complete the anchoring procedure are handled as specified in TS 32.260 [55].

In case of Incoming call received via IMS and routed to IMS, the Remote Leg is charged as follows: Normal IMS and IP-CAN (e.g. WLAN or GSM/GPRS) charging mechanism are applied. These mechanisms are defined in TS 32.260 [55] and IP-CAN middle tier TS respectively.

In case of Incoming call received via IMS and routed to CS with anchoring, the Remote Leg is charged as follows: Normal MTC CDRs are generated by the GMSC or the VMSC in ther terminating network with special handling. One example of special handling is to zero rate the CS resource usage. This can be performed using the "Service Key" parameter in the MTC Records indicating a VCC call. The CDRs generated within the IMS domain to complete the domain selection procedure are handled as specified in TS 32.260 [55].

In case of domain transfer from IMS to CS, the Access Leg is charged as follows: Normal MOC CDR is generated by the VMSC of the new Access Leg with special handling. One example of special handling is to zero rate the CS resource usage. This can be performed using the "Service Key" parameter in the MOC Record indicating a VCC call. The IMS CDRs generated to perfom domain transfer are handled as specified in TS 32.260 [55].

In case of domain transfer from CS to IMS, the Access Leg is charged as follows: The MOC CDRs of the Source-Access Leg (i.e. the Access leg previously established over CS) are closed when the Source Acces Leg is released following normal CDR closure associated with CS call release. The IMS CDRs generated on the new access Leg are handled as specified in TS 32.260 [55].
