This annex specifies the enhancement to PS domain Charging for supporting the convergent scenario, where a single operator owns both the fixed broadband access network and the EPC, and the PCEF is located in the fixed broadband access network, as described in the TS 23.203 [215].

This Annex describes only the exceptions and additions in respect the main body requirements, therefore, if not explicitly mentioned the main body is applicable.

In this Annex, the IP-Edge embedding PCEF will be denoted IP-Edge [PCEF].

As specified in the TS 23.203 [215], Charging for following types of traffic is supported:

– traffic from fixed devices, and

– non-seamless WLAN offload traffic from a 3GPP UE.

Editor’s note: this Annex might require some adjustments based on exchanges with BBF.
