Abstract:
Disclosed are a charging method and device configured to realize charging for a local service without affecting an existing charging procedure when a service platform is deployed at a base station side. The charging method of the invention comprises: when a mobile edge computing gateway (MEC-GW) determines that a user equipment (UE) is to be charged for a local service, transmitting, to a mobile edge computing (MEC) server, a message requesting calculation of local service information associated with the UE; receiving, by the MEC-GW, local service calculation information associated with the UE transmitted by the MEC server, and generating, according to the local service calculation information associated with the UE, a charging data record for the local service associated with the UE; and transmitting, by the MEC-GW, the charging data record for the local service to a charging gate (CG).

Claim (Index 15):
The charging apparatus according to  claim 13 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer readable program codes to; after determine that the UE is to be charged for the local traffic, and before transmit the request message to the MEC server to make the statistic of the local traffic information of the UE, transmit an acknowledgement message for charging the UE for the local traffic to the P-GW.
