SUPL V3.0 Capabilities

OMA SUPL V3.0 builds upon SUPL V1.0 and V2.0 Introduces new features Enhances existing features Some simplifications from SUPL V1.0 and V2.0 Additional bearers supported: Fixed broadband (e.g., cable, DSL, etc.) WLAN Supported positioning protocols and positioning methods: LTE Positioning Protocol (LPP) , LPP Extensions (LPPe), and TIA-801

Radio Resource LCS Protocol [RRLP] and Radio Resource Control [RRC] are no longer supported

Support for positioning methods based on LPP/LPPe and TIA-801 Supported modes of operation and roaming models: Proxy mode only (non-proxy no longer supported in SUPL V3.0) Only roaming with H-SLP supported (roaming with V-SLP is no longer supported) Additional SUPL services /Other capabilities: Generic SUPL Session (GSS) Support of Discovered SLP (D-SLP) Bearer and positioning-technology agnostic protocols (ULP and ILP)

Background / Relationship to LTE Positioning Protocol (LPP)
3GPP RAN2 Working Group (WG) has defined LTE Positioning Protocol (LPP) - positioning protocol for E-UTRAN
Technology Positioning Protocol

GERAN
UTRAN E-UTRAN

Radio Resource LCS Protocol (RRLP)

Radio Resource Control (RRC) LTE Positioning Protocol (LPP)

Operates on a transaction basis between a target device and a server

Target Device
3GPP Evolved Packet System OMA SUPL User Equipment (UE) SUPL Enabled Terminal (SET)

Server
Mobility Management Entity (MME) SUPL Location Platform (SLP)

Transaction Types

LPP Messages:
Request / Provide Capabilities / Assistance Data / Location Information

Exchange of positioning capabilities LPP Transfer of assistance data Transfer of location information (positioning measurements and/or position estimate)

Also: LPP Abort, LPP Error

OMA LPP Extensions (LPPe) V1.0

LPP specifications extensible by other fora (outside 3GPP) OMA LPP Extensions (LPPe) specifications extend the LPP capabilities for User Plane needs

No new messages 3GPP LPP messages extended New positioning methods and procedures

Benefits of OMA LPP Extensions (LPPe) reuse of 3GPP-defined LPP:

Convergence of control and user plane positioning protocols Reduced work load Ability to use the same LPPe protocol in both the control and user planes

OMA LPP Extensions (LPPe) V1.0

Key Features
High accuracy satellite positioning Extends the set of cellular network positioning methods

Enhanced Cell ID, Time-Difference-of-Arrival (TDOA) WLAN Short-range radio nodes (e.g., Bluetooth) Sensor support Supports sending large amount of positioning assistance information from the server to the terminal LPP Mode qualifies the server and target roles

Indoor positioning technologies

Assistance data segmentation

Extends directionality of LPPe messages

Location in SIP/IP core (LOCSIP)

High-Level Architecture
LOCSIP specifies how to use Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to obtain location information
Location Server

Location Server - Functional entity that handles location service subscription request and retrieves the location information of the Target.

Messaging is based on SIP SUBSCRIBE / NOTIFY procedures

SIP / IP Core

Out-of-scope for LOCSIP e.g., Secure User Plane Location (SUPL)

1 Location Client 3 Target

Location Client - Functional entity that subscribes to a Location Server in order to obtain location information for one or more Targets.
12

Target - The device or the user associated with a device whose location is requested.

Location in SIP/IP core (LOCSIP)

Capabilities
LOCSIP allows an application to obtain location information in a SIP/IP core network (e.g., an IP Multimedia Subsystem [IMS])
Reuses capabilities in a SIP/IP core network (e.g., security associations, Application Servers) for receiving and responding to location subscriptions over a standardised SIP-based interface Synergy with other OMA enablers that potentially use location information (e.g., Presence SIMPLE and PoC) Reuse available IETF specifications (e.g., IETF Geopriv deliverables)

Rich set of capabilities include:

Support for Immediate, Periodic and Area Trigger Location Delivery Support filtering of location notifications (accuracy, response time, age) Support for Location Client in a SIP Application Server or in a terminal. Location Client able to request location information for a group of Targets, based on referenced list or request-contained list Support Geographic or Civic location information format
