ETSI TS 132 295 is part of a series of Technical Specifications (TSs) that specify charging functionality and
charging management in 3GPP networks (GSM/UMTS/EPS). The 3GPP core network charging architecture and
principles are specified in TS 32.240 [1], which 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 messages 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)
The complete document structure for these TSs is defined in TS 32.240 [1].
The present document specifies the transaction based mechanism for the near real time transfer of CDRs
within the network.
The present document is related to other 3GPP charging TSs as follows:
- The common 3GPP charging architecture is specified in TS 32.240 [1];
- The parameters, abstract syntax and encoding rules for the CDRs are specified in TS 32.298 [51];
- The file based mechanism used to transfer the CDRs from the network to the operator's Billing Domain (e.g. the
post-processing system or a mediation device) is specified in TS 32.297 [52];
The 3GPP Diameter application that is used for offline and online charging is specified in TS 32.299 [50].
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 [100]. Those that are common across charging management in 3GPP domains
services, or subsystems are provided in the umbrella document TS 32.240 [1] and are copied into clause 3 of the present
document for ease of reading. Finally, those items that are specific to the present document are defined exclusively in
the present document.
Furthermore, requirements that govern the charging work are specified in TS 22.115 [101].
