    BEFORE CBS( IN & OCS)
     Prepaid and postpaid charging systems used to operate independently.
     The network device provider develops the prepaid charging system by
    using the Intelligent Network (IN) technology.
     The postpaid charging system is provided by the charging device provider
    and realized through the Operation and Support System (OSS).
     Voice and data services in prepaid and postpaid charging systems
    couldn’t be managed uniformly.
     Prepaid and postpaid subscribers used to differ in subscriber experience,
    service management, and service expansion. E.g. Data inconsistency;
    status difference etc.
     Carriers had to manage and maintain two or more systems, which
    increases O&M cost.
     Prepaid: service tariff was inflexible; response time was slow; and data
    service was poor. Hard to change from prepaid to postpaid and vice versa
     Postpaid : No real-time charging and traffic control hence, revenue loss.
     Hard to satisfy subscriber requirements

    session-based online charging and CDR-based offline
    charging.
