SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI ES 282 010 V2.0.6 for TISPAN charging management. It specifies charging for TISPAN NGN, including offline charging, online charging, Advice of Charge (AoC), realtime transfer of tariff information, and new interconnection charging capabilities. It is intended for operators, integrators, and vendors working on IMS-based service charging and interconnection billing.
What does SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 specify?
SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 specifies charging applicable to NGN, but not to PSTN/ISDN Emulation other than for an IMS contained within that subsystem. In practice, that means the document is focused on TISPAN NGN charging and the IMS-related parts of the wider architecture.
The scope covers:
- Offline Charging
- Online charging
- AoC (Advice of Charge)
- Realtime transfer of tariff information through interconnection interfaces
- New interconnection charging capabilities
The document is organized as a short ETSI standard with a scope, references, an endorsement notice, global modifications to several 3GPP charging specifications, and informative annexes. Annex ZA gives additional information on 3GPP charging, Annex ZB gives AoC examples in interconnection scenarios, and Annex ZC lists TISPAN documents dealing with charging and accounting.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| ZA | Additional information on 3GPP Charging, including standardization context, gap analysis, offline charging architecture, service charging, inter-operator charging, and an online charging overview |
| ZB | AoC examples for IMS, PSTN/IN, IMS-to-IMS, IMS-to-PES, and PES-to-IMS interconnection scenarios |
| ZC | A list of TISPAN documents dealing with charging and accounting |
What are the key requirements of SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008?
SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 is mainly an endorsement and adaptation of 3GPP charging specifications for TISPAN NGN. The practical effect is that it tells implementers how charging information must move between IMS functional entities, interconnection points, and billing systems.
Charging functions and what they are used for
The scope and annexes show four charging themes that drive the document:
- Offline charging - network elements create charging events and CDRs for later billing.
- Online charging - charging is handled during service use.
- AoC - tariff information is presented to the user during or before a call or session.
- Realtime tariff transfer - charging data is carried across interconnection interfaces so the called or calling side can show pricing or store it in billing records.
For a reader, this means the document is about where tariff information is generated, how it is transported, and where it is recorded.
How tariff information is handled
The endorsement notice adds realtime transfer of tariff information through interconnection interfaces. The tariff can represent a direct tariff or an add-on charge, and it can be expressed in non-monetary units or monetary units. In practice, implementers need to preserve tariff information when sessions cross network borders, because it may be used for user advice and for optional charging records.
What IMS functional entities do
The document adds functional behavior for IMS entities:
- An AS providing AoC must be able to send AoC-information to the UE according to TS 183 047.
- When an AS sends AoC-information within the same domain, it retrieves tariff information, adds AoC-related parameters, and maps the result onto SIP.
- When tariff information is sent downstream, the AS maps it into SIP and transfers it according to TS 183 058.
- When tariff information arrives through an interconnection interface, the AS converts the SIP tariff information into AoC information.
- The MGCF maps tariff information between SIP and ISUP (APM) and can also filter it.
- The IBCF can filter tariff information between two IMSs or between an IMS and a PES.
For engineering teams, this means the charging design is not just billing back-end work - it also affects SIP and ISUP signaling behavior at service and border-control nodes.
What changes apply to offline charging
The document modifies offline charging so that tariff information can be captured in optional CDR parameters at the service-hosting side and, where useful, at the originating side. It also adds a new tariff-related parameter, such as “Cost information,” to offline charging AVPs and CDRs created by AS, IBCF, S-CSCF, and MGCF. A new IBCF CDR is also defined so that charging and accounting data can be collected as close as possible to the interconnection point.
In practical terms, billing implementations must be prepared to carry tariff data alongside normal charging data, especially for inter-operator calls and premium services.
What is excluded or limited in the endorsed 3GPP material
The global modifications state that bearer level charging and flow-based charging are not included from 3GPP TS 32.240. The modifications to 3GPP TS 32.298 also state that bearer level CDRs and service level CDR parameters are not supported there. This matters because implementers should not assume that every 3GPP charging variant is carried into the TISPAN profile.
What terms does SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 define?
- add-on charge - A single additional charge that does not change the current tariff, and it may be measured in non-monetary or monetary units.
- Charge Determination Point (CDP) - The point that decides which tariff or add-on charge applies and inserts tariff information into SIP requests or responses.
- Charge Generation Point (CGP) - The point that receives tariff information from a CDP and uses it to generate AoC information.
- Charging Trigger Function (CTF) - The function that observes resource usage, creates charging events, and sends them toward offline or online charging functions.
- Charging Data Function (CDF) - The offline charging function that receives charging events and constructs CDRs.
- Online Charging Function (OCF) - The online charging function that receives charging events for real-time charging purposes.
- Tariff - The set of parameters defining charges for use of a bearer, session, or service, in monetary or non-monetary units.
- Advice of Charge (AoC) - The service that provides tariff-related information to the user, including information at setup, during communication, or at the end.
Who uses SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008?
SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 is used by TISPAN and IMS architects, charging system designers, billing engineers, and service platform vendors. It is also relevant to interconnect engineers and operators who need tariff information to pass between networks, especially in IMS, PES, and legacy interworking scenarios.
In practice, these users apply it when they:
- design offline and online charging flows
- implement AoC behavior in an AS
- map tariff information between SIP and ISUP
- define CDR content for billing and accounting
- handle inter-operator charging and dispute support
- align charging with RACS, IMS, and border control functions
What changed in SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 from the previous edition?
The document history lists an earlier publication, V1.1.1 from June 2006, and the current V2.0.6 publication in January and April 2008. The history therefore shows a later edition of the same charging management standard, with the current text based on the modified endorsement of the listed 3GPP Release 7 charging specifications.
Which standards are used with SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008?
SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 relies on several normative references that provide the charging architecture, signaling behavior, and charging data formats it adapts.
| Standard | Contribution |
|---|---|
| ETSI TS 132 240 | Universal Mobile Charging architecture and principles |
| ETSI TS 132 260 | IMS charging |
| ETSI TS 132 296 | Online Charging System (OCS) applications and interfaces |
| ETSI TS 132 297 | Charging Data Record (CDR) file format and transfer |
| ETSI TS 132 298 | CDR parameter description |
| ETSI TS 132 299 | Diameter charging applications |
| ETSI TS 181 005 | General TISPAN charging requirements |
| ETSI ES 283 003 | SIP and SDP call control protocol stage 3 |
| ETSI TS 182 006 | IMS stage 2 description |
| ETSI TS 183 033 | Diameter-based interfaces for CSCF and UPSF/SLF |
| ETSI TS 183 047 | AoC service specification |
| ETSI ES 201 296 | ISUP charging signaling aspects |
| IETF RFC 3455 | SIP P-Header extensions used for charging correlation |
Informative references such as TS 183 058, ES 282 007, and the TISPAN requirement documents support the charging architecture and related interworking cases.
What does the SIST ES 282 010 V2.0.6:2008 document contain?
The document contains a reference list, an endorsement notice, and global modification notes that map the endorsed 3GPP references into the TISPAN environment. Annex ZA contains an overall offline charging architecture figure, an online charging overview, and short explanatory text for service charging and inter-operator charging.
Annex ZB contains five worked examples of AoC in interconnection scenarios, showing how tariff information moves between IMS, PSTN/IN, and PES networks. Annex ZC provides a tabulated list of TISPAN documents related to charging and accounting, which helps readers find the companion requirements and protocol specifications needed to implement the model.

8 Final draft ETSI ES 282 010 V2.0.6 (2008-01)
All occurrences to Bearer level charging and flow-based charging (clause 5.3.1) are not included.
Advice of Charge (clause 5.5.4) is included with modifications (see separate description).
The following text needs to be added:
Realtime transfer of tariff information through interconnection interfaces
In addition to offline- and online charging, the realtime transfer of tariff information through interconnection interfaces
is implemented in IMS in order to support value added services that are billed by the caller's operator, so that the caller's
operator can provide AoC (Advice of Charge) to the caller for information purposes. Additionally, this tariff
information may be reflected in an optional CDR parameter at the caller's operator side and/or at the service-hosting
side. The transferred tariff information represents direct tariff or add-on charge, either in non-monetary units (e.g.
meter-pulse) or in monetary-units (e.g. currency).
Requirements can be found in TS 181 005 V2.4.1.
Examples can be found in annex ZB.
Functional enhancements of IMS functional entities
An AS providing AoC must be capable of sending AoC-information to the UE, according to TS 183 047. AoC-
information consists of tariff-related information plus further AoC-related parameters.
When an AS providing AoC needs to send AoC-information to a UE of the same domain, it retrieves tariff information,
adds further AoC-related information, and maps the complete AoC-information onto SIP in order to send AoC
information to the UE.
When tariff information needs to be sent downstream, the AS retrieves tariff information and maps this information into
SIP, which is then transferred according to TS 183 058.
When tariff information is received through an interconnection interface according to ES 201 296, the AS providing
AoC retrieves the tariff information from SIP and transfers it into AoC information.
The MGCF maps tariff information from SIP into ISUP (APM) and vice versa. It can also filter tariff information.
An IBCF can filter tariff information exchanged between two IMS or between a TISPAN IMS and a PES.
Offline Charging modifications
For interconnection scenarios where the caller's network does not have the tariff information of a service which is
located in a different network, the price that the end user has to pay for that service must be available in an appropriate
optional CDR-parameter at the service-hosting side (called network or called service provider). The transferred tariff
information may be also stored at the originating network side.
Therefore, a new parameter which reflects the tariff (

Advice of Charge (clause 5.5.4) is included with modifications (see separate description).
The following text needs to be added:
Realtime transfer of tariff information through interconnection interfaces
In addition to offline- and online charging, the realtime transfer of tariff information through interconnection interfaces
is implemented in IMS in order to support value added services that are billed by the caller's operator, so that the caller's
operator can provide AoC (Advice of Charge) to the caller for information purposes. Additionally, this tariff
information may be reflected in an optional CDR parameter at the caller's operator side and/or at the service-hosting
side. The transferred tariff information represents direct tariff or add-on charge, either in non-monetary units (e.g.
meter-pulse) or in monetary-units (e.g. currency).
Requirements can be found in TS 181 005 [16] V2.4.1.
Examples can be found in annex ZB.
Functional enhancements of IMS functional entities
An AS providing AoC must be capable of sending AoC-information to the UE, according to TS 183 047 [13].
AoC-information consists of tariff-related information plus further AoC-related parameters.
When an AS providing AoC needs to send AoC-information to a UE of the same domain, it retrieves tariff information,
adds further AoC-related information, and maps the complete AoC-information onto SIP in order to send AoC
information to the UE.
When tariff information needs to be sent downstream, the AS retrieves tariff information and maps this information into
SIP, which is then transferred according to TS 183 058 [17].
When tariff information is received through an interconnection interface according to ES 201 296 [14], the AS
providing AoC retrieves the tariff information from SIP and transfers it into AoC information.
The MGCF maps tariff information from SIP into ISUP (APM) and vice versa. It can also filter tariff information.
An IBCF can filter tariff information exchanged between two IMS or between a TISPAN IMS and a PES.
