# CHarging Function(CHF) overview
# CHarging Function(CHF) Overview

The `charging function` is a crucial component of the 5G core network responsible for tasks such as `traffic calculation and quota management`. For network providers and administrators, it is one of the most critical network elements. This article will explain the fundamental concepts and mechanisms of charging, as well as highlight the differences between 4G and 5G charging. Finally, we will include information about the CHF implementation developed by the free5GC team.
