A service control method for a machine type communications (MTC) device and a related apparatus, where the method includes receiving, by an access-network network element, a paging request message from a core-network network element, wherein the paging request message carries device type indication information of a paged user equipment (UE), determining a device type of the UE according to the device type indication information of the UE, and paging the UE using a dedicated paging resource allocated to an MTC device when the UE is the MTC device.

Service control method for machine type communications device and related apparatus and system

A service control method for a machine type communications (MTC) device and a related apparatus are provided. The method includes receiving, by an access-network network element, a paging request message from a core-network network element, wherein the paging request message carries device type indication information of a paged user equipment (UE); determining a device type of the UE according to the device type indication information of the UE; and if the UE is an MTC device, performing the following service operations: paging the UE by using a dedicated paging resource allocated to an MTC device, or determining whether the UE is an MTC device allowed to be accessed in a service control policy, and paging the UE if the UE is an MTC device allowed to be accessed in a service control policy, or determining not to page the UE, and sending a paging reject message to the core-network network element.

The present invention provides a service rate control method, system and device. The method includes: receiving, by a PGW, a PCC rule sent by a PCRF, wherein the PCC rule includes a service data flow identifier, a QCI and an ARP; and determining whether the PCC rule satisfies a new bearer establishment condition, if the PCC rule satisfies the new bearer establishment condition, establishing a first bearer according to the QCI and the ARP, and binding a service data flow corresponding to the service data flow identifier to the first bearer. The present invention solves the problem that rates of some service data flows will exceed their own GBRs continuously due to service characteristics, thereby leading a QoS of other service data flow sharing a same bearer as the service data flow cannot be satisfied, thus ensuring the degree of user experience.

Service rate control method, system and device

A bearer processing method is disclosed. The method includes these steps: a system border node receives a Packet Data Protocol (PDP) Context Request initiated by a universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS); the system border node adjusts a Request Bearer Resource Allocation message of a system architecture evolution (SAE) system or the PDP Context Request of the UMTS according to the received PDP Context Request to map the Bearer Resource Allocation procedure of the SAE system and the Bearer Resource Allocation procedure of the UMTS. The present invention can map the Bearer Resource Allocation procedure of the SAE system and the Bearer Resource Allocation procedure of the UMTS.

Method and apparatus for bearer processing

A service control method for a machine type communications device and a related apparatus and system are disclosed. The service control method for the machine type communications device may include: receiving, by an access-network network element, a service request message from a core-network network element, where the service request message carries device type indication information of a user equipment (UE), and the device type indication information of the UE is used to indicate whether the UE is a machine type communications device; determining a device type of the UE according to the device type indication information of the UE; and if a current load of the access-network network element exceeds a set threshold, determining, according to the device type of the UE, whether to execute a service operation corresponding to the service request message.

The present invention relates to the communication field and discloses a method, an apparatus, and a system for processing priority services to overcome a problem in the prior art that priority services initiated from a network to a target user cannot be provided.
