Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for implementing limited policy and charging control. The method comprises a PCRF determining whether a visited network where a UE roams supports PCC, and sending a message containing an identifier indicating the limited policy and charging control deployment to an AF. After receiving the message containing the identifier, the AF performs no subscription of the event trigger and/or cancels the subscription of the event trigger based on the identifier. Using the method and system in accordance with the present invention, the AF can be notified more conveniently and accurately of the current policy and charging control deployment situation when the limited policy and charging control is implemented (i.e., when the visited network does not support the PCC). Moreover, the AF may perform the corresponding operations according to the current policy and charging control deployment situation, thereby saving system resources.
