Systems and methods for measuring (figure 1) and reporting prepaid service usage are provided (figure2). More particularly, monitoring and reporting packet data session usage for purposes of charging for service usage are provided (figure 3). In some embodiments, layer- 3 data packet monitoring is used to determine usage. In other embodiments, the start and end of a packet data session are used to determine usage. The usage can be determined from the duration of the packet data session or from the size or amount of packets sent and received by a mobile node.

La présente invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés de mesure et de signalisation d'utilisation de service prépayé. Elle concerne plus particulièrement la surveillance et la signalisation d'utilisation de sessions de données par paquet dans le but de facturer l'utilisation de services. Dans certains modes de réalisation, on utilise la surveillance de paquets de données de la couche 3 pour déterminer l'utilisation. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, on utilise le début et la fin d'une session de données par paquet pour déterminer l'utilisation. On peut déterminer l'utilisation à partir de la durée de la session de données par paquets ou à partir de la taille ou du nombre de paquets envoyés et reçus par un nAEud mobile.
