Abstract
At least one offline usage reporting rule is instantiated at a user plane element of the telecommunications network, wherein the usage reporting rule indicates at least one trigger condition. The user plane element detects an occurrence of the at least one trigger condition in traffic processed by the user plane element and, in response, generates and temporarily stores a first usage report. Subsequently, the user plane element detects an occurrence of an immediate reporting condition and, in response to detecting of the occurrence of the immediate reporting condition, sends the first usage report to a control plane element.
