The present invention relates to a charging method in a telecommunications system (TS) when information is being transmitted in a generic radio based access network (GRAN) to which two or more service networks (SN1, SN2, SN3) with different specified standards are connected. The access network comprises radio control units (RNC1-RNC5), each of which constitutes a connection point between the access network (GRAN) and at least one of the service networks (SN1-SN3). Charging parameters (DP10-DP12, DP20, DP30-DP33) representing charging agreements for the service networks' (SN1-SN3) utilization of the access network (GRAN) are stored in the radio control units. The method also comprises the following additional steps: A transmission request (B0) for information transmission is sent from the telecommunications station (TA) to the home network (SN1). A charging agreement for the requested information transmission is selected in the home network (SN1). Transmission of a connection request (B1a) for the establishment of a connection to the mobile unit (TE) from the home network (SN1) to a first radio control unit (RNC1) constituting a connection point between the access network (GRAN) and the home network (SN1); Transmission of a charging agreement pointer (P1a) from the home network (SN1) to the first radio transmission unit (RNC1). The pointer (P1a) points out charging parameters (DP11) representing the selected charging agreement. |
