Method, apparatus, and system for controlling services

An apparatus for controlling services, comprising:

• an obtaining module, configured to obtain congestion state information on a cell, resource-related information on the cell, and subscriber-related information on a user equipment UE in an activated state in the cell that are sent by an access network device;
• a decision module configured to generate a quality of service QoS policy and/or a charging policy for the UE in the activated state in the cell according to the congestion state information on the cell, the resource-related information on the cell, and the subscriber-related information on the UE in the activated state in the cell;
• and
• a sending module, configured to send the QoS policy and/or the charging policy to a policy and charging enforcement function entity PCEF, so as to enable the PCEF to execute the QoS policy and/or the charging policy.

A system for controlling services, comprising an access network device and a policy and charging rules function entity PCRF;

• wherein
• the access network device is configured to send congestion state information on a cell, resource-related information on the cell, and subscriber-related information on a UE in an activated state in the cell to the PCRF;
• the PCRF is configured to receive the congestion state information on the cell, the resource-related information on the cell, and the subscriber-related information on the UE in the activated state in the cell that are sent by the access network device;
• generate a quality of service QoS policy and/or a charging policy for the UE in the activated state in the cell according to the congestion state information on the cell, the resource-related information on the cell, and the subscriber-related information on the UE in the activated state in the cell;
• and send the generated QoS policy and/or charging policy to a policy and charging enforcement function PCEF, so as to enable the PCEF to execute the QoS policy and/or the charging policy sent by the PCRF.
