LTE Billing and Charging

  Course Code: LT1316

Course Details

1/2 Days / 1 Live Online Sessions (0900-1230)

Description

Our LTE Billing and Charging Training Course provides a comprehensive technical overview of the billing and charging architecture specifically designed for 4G LTE networks. Participants will gain insights into LTE bearer, traffic flow, and Quality of Service (QoS) concepts, as well as an in-depth understanding of the architecture of both online and offline billing systems. Key nodes, interfaces, and protocols used for transporting billing and charging information will be explored, along with the interactions with the billing system during basic LTE procedures.

This course is ideal for engineers, designers, managers, and individuals involved in the development, deployment, or operation of LTE billing and charging systems. Familiarity with the LTE Evolved Packet Core is assumed, and experience with 2G or 3G billing systems would be beneficial. Topics covered include EPS bearer concepts, LTE QoS models, packet flows, deep packet inspection, policy and charging control, flow-based charging, billing architecture, charging data capture points, protocols (Diameter, CAP), interfaces (Gy, Gz, Rf, Ro), charging criteria, CDR formats, CDR generation, and charging interaction with basic LTE procedures. Join us for this informative and practical training session to enhance your knowledge and skills in LTE billing and charging.
