  • Patent number: 11923994
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) a packet core system and method for common charging of network connectivity and cloud resource utilization for the UE. Upon receipt of a service request from the UE the packet core system sends a service definition of common network connectivity and cloud service classes. The UE sends a request for a network connectivity and cloud resource service with a common network connectivity and cloud service classes. The common class is translated into a first network connectivity class and a second cloud service class. A request for a cloud service comprising the second cloud service class is sent to a cloud node, and charging event is received from the cloud node. The charging event is merged with a charging event of network connectivity according to the first network connectivity class. A merged charging event, according to the requested common network connectivity and cloud service class, is achieved.
