Abstract

A method and system (figure 2) for revenue sharing between mobile operators and content providers. The content providers, through a data network, provide data services to the end users of the mobile operators. For the data services, the content providers are paid by the mobile operators based on the revenue collected by the mobile operators from the end users using the services. An intermediate proxy is disposed between a mobile operator and the data network to keep track of the data amount transmitted by the content providers and the users to keep track of the revenue sharing agreements established between that mobile operator and the content providers. Additionally, an intermediate proxy is linked to each content provider to keep track of the data amount transmitted to the end users via a mobile operator and to keep track of the revenue sharing agreement with that mobile operator.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 26 January 2004 (26.01.04); original claim 20 amended; remaining claims unchanged (1 page)]
17. The system according to any one of claims 13 to 15, further characterized by a further agent linked to the content provider for monitoring the data amount transmitted to the end user via the mobile operator, said further agent adapted to inform the content provider of the data amount.
18. The system according to any one of claims 13 to 17, characterized in that the mobile operator pays the content provider the payment amount at preconfigured intervals, and the content provider comprises means to verify the payment amount based on the data amount.
19. The system according to any one of claims 13 to 17, characterized in that the content provider provides the mobile operator at pre-configured intervals an invoice for payment based on the data amount, and the mechanism is adapted to verify the invoice.
20. A device for use in a data network and a mobile network of a mobile operator to carry out revenue sharing between the mobile operator and a content provider in the data network, wherein the content provider provides data services to an end user via the mobile network, and the mobile operator furnishes a data connection between the content provider and the end user, and wherein the mobile operator obtains a revenue from the end user for the data services provided by the content provider, said device characterized by means for keeping track of an agreement on revenue sharing between the mobile operator and the content provider based on an identity of the content provider, and means for collecting information indicative of a data amount transmitted between the content provider and the end user so as to allow the mobile operator to pay the content provider based on the revenue according to the agreement.
21. The device of claim 20, wherein the data transmission between the content provider and the end user is carried out in a packet-switched fashion, said device characterized in that said collecting means is adapted to collect information indicative of the data amount transmitted between the content provider and the end user by counting
