Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021188023A1] Systems and methods are provided for charging for services in a telecommunications network. The method includes: providing a charging function (CHF) in a node in the telecommunications network which is responsible for collecting information used for charging for telecommunication services; and learning, by the CHF node, about information associated with a new service to be charged which is provided by one or more network functions (NFs), the learning performed by receiving the information associated with the new service from another network node.
