In-Basic Call Flow

1. The document describes various call signaling flows for a PPS (Prepaid Service) including calls between PPS subscribers, calls from regular subscribers to PPS subscribers, and SMS and USSD flows. 2. Key aspects involve the MSC and SCP interacting to determine call rates and convert balances to talk time based on the locations and subscriptions of the calling and called parties. 3. The flows trigger CAMEL services which allow the SCP to analyze accounts and return charging instructions to the MSC for applying charges and connecting calls.

Call initiated by a PPS subscriber.


1. Procedures: 2. 1. The MSC a/VLR/SSP receives the call and according to Originating Camel Subscription Information (O-CSI), triggers the service. 3. 2. Put the area code of the MSC a/VLR/SSP in the Location Number parameter of IDP message and send to the SCP a. 4. 3. The SCP a, after receiving the IDP message, analyzes the calling party's user account. If the user account is valid, it determines a call rate for the calling party according to the area code of the calling party's visit location (Location Number within IDP message) and the called party's HLR number, converts the balance to talk time, and then sends RRBE, AC, and FCI to the MSCa/VLR/SSP. 5. 4. When receiving Continue, the MSC a/VLR/SSP sends the SRI message to the called party's HLRb and gets the called party's MSRN, and finally puts the call through. 6. 5. After talking , the calling party or called party hangs up, and the MSC a/VLR/SSP sends the charging report and Release event.

Ordinary GSM subscriber calls a PPS subscriber


Procedures: 1. The MSC a/VLR/SSP receives the call originated by a GSM user. After judging that the calling party is not a PPS user, it sends SRI to the called party and gets the called party's subscription information T-CSI. 2. From T-CSI, the MSC a/VLR/SSP gets the called SCP b's address and sends the IDP message to it. Area code of the originating MSC/VLR is put in the LocationNumber field in the IDP message. 3. The SCP b, after receiving the IDP message, analyzes the called party's user account. If the user account is valid, it determines a call rate for the called party according to the called party's HLR number and current location, converts the balance to talk time, and then sends RRBE, AC, and Connect to the MSCa/VLR/SSP. 4. Upon receiving Connect, the MSC a/VLR/SSP sends again the SRI message to the called party's HLRb and gets the called party's MSRN. 5. The MSC a/VLR/SSP finally puts the call through according to the called party's MSRN. 6. After the conversation, the calling or called party hangs up, and the MSC a/VLR/SSP sends the charging report and Release event.

Procedures: 1. The MSC a/VLR/SSP receives the call and according to Originating Camel Subscription Information (O-CSI), triggers the service and sends the IDP message to the SCP a. Area code of the MSCa/VLR/SSP is put in the LocationNumber parameter of IDP. 2. The SCP a, according to the calling party's location and called number, determines a call rate for the calling party, converts the balance to talk time, and then sends RRBE, AC, FCI and Continue to the MSCa/VLR/SSP. 3. When receiving Continue, the MSC a/VLR/SSP sends the SRI message to the called party's HLRb and gets the called partys T-CSI (Terminating Camel Subscription Information) and location information. 4. From T-CSI, the MSCb/VLR/SSP gets the called SCP a's address and sends the IDP message to it. Area code of the originating MSC/VLR is put in the LocationNumber field in the IDP message. 5. The SCP a, after receiving the IDP message, analyzes the called party's user account. If the user account is valid, it determines a call rate for the called party according to the called party's HLR number and current location, converts the balance to talk time, and then sends RRBE, AC, and Connect to the MSCa/VLR/SSP. 6. Upon receiving Connect, the MSC a/VLR/SSP sends again the SRI message to the called party's HLR a and gets the called party's MSRN. 7. The MSC a/VLR/SSP finally puts the call through according to the called party's MSRN. 8. After the conversation, the calling party or called party hangs up, and the MSC a/VLR/SSP reports the Release event and Charging to the SCPa.
