Operator B Operator A ??? Service provider The file has to be transferred to the home network. TAP Operator C Operator D 09-09-22 > home network: Operator A > visiting network: Operator B ~48h 7 This time frame is too long for efficient fraud detection! 09-09-22 8 Solution: NRTRDE! • Near Real-Time Roaming Data Exchange – transfer of a NRTRDE file should occur within a time frame of 4 hours – carries information about the time and duration (volume) of events • This process can be efficiently used for fraud detection, but a mobile operator should have NRTRDE processing system. 09-09-22 9 NRTRDE Processing System Operator B Service provider NRTRDE Processing System Operator A 09-09-22 10 NRTRDE Processing System (Requirements) • Convert the ASN.1 files into ASCII CSV format • Load data into a database schema • Rate of each record from the loaded file • Enable creation and modification of rating parameters for each roaming partner 09-09-22 11 NRTRDE Processing System (Requirements) Enable creation of differnt reports • Generate a list of subscribers for suspension according to predefined criteria • Enable modification of criteria and parameter values for subscriber suspension 09-09-22 12 NRTRDE Processing System (Architecture & Technologies) ASN.1 ASN.1 to CSV converter (C, php, ...) (PostgreSQL) Rating engine (UNIX) Reports Administration Application (php, HTML/CSS, ...) 09-09-22 13 Out of the scope • The goal of this project is to develop NRTRDE processing systems – we are not solving NRTRDE files transfer problem • Processing system will not syncronize with other operator's systems – parameters will not be automatically updated from external source 09-09-22 14 Hopes 09-09-22 15 Thank you! 09-09-22 16
