Filtering Location Notifications in
the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
Abstract
This document describes filters that limit asynchronous location
notifications to compelling events. These filters are designed as an
extension to RFC 4661, an XML-based format for event notification
filtering, and based on RFC 3856, the SIP presence event package.
The resulting location information is conveyed in existing location
formats wrapped in the Presence Information Data Format Location
Object (PIDF-LO).

RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
1. Introduction
Conveying location information encapsulated with a Presence
Information Data Format Location Object (PIDF-LO) [RFC4119] document
within SIP is described in [SIP-LOC]. An alternative signaling
approach to location conveyance, which uses asynchronous
communication, is available with the SIP event notification
mechanisms (see RFC 3265 [RFC3265]). This approach conveys location
information in PIDF-LO format using the presence event package
[RFC3856]. This document focuses on the event notification paradigm.
Determining when to send event notifications with location
information is technically more challenging than deciding when to
send other categories of notifications, since location may be
measured as a continuous gradient. Unlike notifications using
discrete-valued quantities, it is difficult to know when a change in
location is sufficiently large to warrant a notification. Event
notifications [RFC3265] can be used with filters (see RFC 4661
[RFC4661]) that allow the number of notifications to be reduced. The
mechanism described in this document defines an extension to RFC 4661
[RFC4661], which limits location notification to events that are of
relevance to the subscriber. These filters persist until they are
replaced with a newer filter or until the subscription itself is
terminated.
The frequency of notifications necessary for various geographic
location applications varies dramatically. The subscriber should be
able to get asynchronous notifications with appropriate frequency and
granularity, without being flooded with a large number of
notifications that are not important to the application.
This document defines new event filters and describes others using
existing mechanisms that may be relevant to a subscriber in the
context of location filtering. Based on the functionality defined in
this document, notifications can be provided in the following cases:
1. the Target moves more than a specified distance since the last
notification (see Section 3.1).
2. the Target exceeds a specified speed (see Section 3.2).
3. the Target enters or exits a 2-dimensional region, described by a
circle or a polygon (see Section 3.4).
4. one or more of the values of the specified civic location have
changed for the location of the Target (see Section 3.3). For
example, the value of the civic address '<A1>' element has
changed from 'California' to 'Nevada'.
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
5. the type of location information requested (see Section 3.5)
changes, for example, from civic to geodetic location or vice
versa.
6. a certain amount of time passes (see Section 3.6).
2. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
This document reuses terminology from [RFC6280].
3. Filter Definitions
This specification builds on a number of other specifications, as
noted in Section 1. In order to reduce the number of options (and
thereby decrease the chance of interoperability problems), the
functionality described in the following sub-sections of [RFC4661]
MUST be implemented: the <ns-bindings> element (see Section 3.3 of
[RFC4661]); the <filter> element (Section 3.4 of [RFC4661]); and the
<trigger> element (Section 3.6 of [RFC4661]), except for the <added>
and <removed> sub-elements.
3.1. Movement
The <moved> element MUST contain a value in meters indicating the
minimum distance that the resource must have moved from the location
of the resource since the last notification was sent in order to
trigger this event. The distance MUST be measured in meters
absolutely from the point of the last notification, and must include
vertical movement. The <moved> element MUST NOT appear more than
once as a child element of the <filter> element.

</trigger>
</filter>
</filter-set>
Figure 1: Movement Filter Example
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
3.2. Speed Changes
Speed changes can be filtered by combining functionality from RFC
4661 with the PIDF-LO extensions for spatial orientation, speed,
heading, and acceleration defined in [RFC5962]. The value of the
<speed> element from [RFC5962] MUST be defined in meters per second.
Note that the condition could be met by a change in any axis,
including altitude.
Figure 2 shows an example for a trigger that fires when the speed of
the Target changes by 3 meters per second.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<filter-set xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:simple-filter">
<ns-bindings>
<ns-binding prefix="dyn"
urn="urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:pidf:dynamic"/>
</ns-bindings>
<filter id="123" uri="sip:presentity@example.com">
<trigger>
<changed by="3">
//dyn:speed
</changed>
</trigger>
</filter>
</filter-set>
Figure 2: Speed Change Example
An implementation MUST support <ns-bindings> to replace the namespace
prefix. The XPath expression MUST start with a '//' followed by a
single element. No other form of XPath expression is supported. The
<changed> element comes with a few attributes but only the 'by'
attribute MUST be implemented by this specification.
3.3. Element Value Changes
Changes in values, for example related to civic location information,
is provided by the base functionality offered with RFC 4661 utilizing
the <changed> element.
The following example illustrates a filter that triggers when the
Target's location changes from 'FR' (France) to some other country.
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</ns-bindings>
<filter id="123" uri="sip:presentity@example.com">
<trigger>
<changed from="FR">//ca:country</changed>
</trigger>
</filter>
</filter-set>
Figure 3: Element Value Change Example (Country Change)
At times when it is desirable to know if any one element of a list of
CAtypes changes, then they have to be put into separate <changes>
filters to ensure the subscriber is notified when any of the element
values change. Figure 4 shows such an example that illustrates the
difference.
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 6]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
(A change in value of ANY of the five tokens triggers an event.)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<trigger>
<changed>//ca:A3</changed>
</trigger>
<trigger>
<changed>//ca:PC</changed>
</trigger>
</filter>
</filter-set>
Figure 4: Element Value Change Example
Finally, Figure 5 shows an example where a notification is sent when
the civic address tokens A3 and PC change (BOTH elements must change
in order to let the <trigger> element evaluate to TRUE).
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 7]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
(Only a change in BOTH tokens triggers an event.)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

urn="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:geopriv10:civicAddr"/>
</ns-bindings>
<filter id="123" uri="sip:presentity@example.com">
<trigger>
<changed>//ca:A3</changed>
<changed>//ca:PC</changed>
</trigger>
</filter>
</filter-set>
Figure 5: Element Value Change Example
Note: The civic address tokens country, A1, A2, ..., A6 are
hierarchical. It is likely that a change in one civic address token
therefore leads to changes of tokens lower in the hierarchy, e.g., a
change in A3 ('city or town') may cause a change in A4, A5, and A6.
An implementation MUST support <ns-bindings> to replace the namespace
prefix. The XPath expression MUST start with a '//' followed by a
single element. No other form of XPath expression is supported. No
other variant is supported. The <changed> element comes with a few
attributes and the 'by', 'to', and 'from' attribute MUST be
implemented to support this specification.
3.4. Entering or Exiting a Region
The <enterOrExit> condition is satisfied when the Target enters or
exits a 2-dimensional region described by a polygon (as defined in
Section 5.2.2 of [RFC5491]) or a circle (as defined in Section 5.2.3
of [RFC5491]). The <enterOrExit> element MUST contain either a
polygon or a circle as a child element. The <enterOrExit> element
MUST NOT have more than one polygon and/or circle.
If the Target was previously outside the region, the notifier sends a
notification when the Target's location is within the region with at
least 50% confidence. Similarly, when a Target starts within the
region, a notification is sent when the Target's location moves
outside the region with at least 50% confidence.
Note that having 50% confidence that the Target is inside the area
does not correspond to 50% outside. The confidence that the location
is within the region, plus the confidence that the location is
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
outside the region is limited to the confidence of the location. The
total confidence depends on the confidence in the location, which is
always less than 100% (95% is recommended in [RFC5491]). The benefit
of this is that notifications are naturally limited: small movements
(relative to the uncertainty of the location) at the borders of the
region do not trigger notifications.
Figure 6 shows filter examples whereby a notification is sent when
the Target enters or exits an area described by a circle, and
Figure 7 describes an area using a polygon.

3.5. Location Type
The <locationType> element MAY be included as a child element of the
<what> element. It contains a list of location information types
that are requested by the subscriber. The following list describes
the possible values:
any: The Notifier SHOULD attempt to provide location information in
all forms available to it.
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 10]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
geodetic: The Notifier SHOULD return a location by value in the form
of a geodetic location.
civic: The Notifier SHOULD return a location by value in the form of
a civic address.
The Notifier SHOULD return the requested location type or types. The
location types the Notifier returns also depends on the setting of
the optional 'exact' attribute. If the 'exact' attribute is set to
"true", then the Notifier MUST return either the requested location
type or no location information. The 'exact' attribute does not
apply (is ignored) for a request for a location type of "any".
In the case of a request for specific locationType(s) and the 'exact'
attribute is "false", the Notifier MAY provide additional location
types, or it MAY provide alternative types if the request cannot be
satisfied for a requested location type.
If the <locationType> element is absent, a value of "any" MUST be
assumed as the default.
The Notifier SHOULD provide civic and geodetic location information
in the response in the same order in which they were included in the
"locationType" element in the request, if both were explicitly
requested. Indeed, the primary advantage of including specific
location types in a request when the 'exact' attribute is set to
"false" is to ensure that one receives the available locations in a
specific order. For example, a subscription for "civic" (with the
'exact' attribute set to "false") could yield any of the following
location types in the response:
o civic
o civic, geodetic
o geodetic (only if civic is not available)
The default value of "false" for the 'exact' attribute allows the
Notifier the option of returning something beyond what is specified,
such as a set of location URIs when only a civic location was
requested.
An example is shown in Figure 8 that utilizes the <locationType>
element with the 'exact' attribute.

</filter>
</filter-set>
Figure 8: <locationType> Filter Example
3.6. Rate Control
[RFC6446] extends the SIP events framework by defining three Event
header field parameters that allow a subscriber to set a minimum, a
maximum, and an adaptive minimum of event notifications generated by
the notifier. This allows a subscriber to have overall control over
the stream of notifications, for example to avoid being flooded. Two
of the parameters, namely "min-rate" (which specifies a minimum
notification rate per second) and "max-rate" (which specifies a
maximum notification rate per second) are used by this document.
Only the implementation of these two attributes is required from the
attributes defined in [RFC6446]. Whenever the time since the most
recent notification exceeds the interval corresponding to 1 / "min-
rate", the current state would be sent in its entirety, just like
after a subscription refresh.
A notifier is required to send a NOTIFY request immediately after
creation of a subscription. If state is not available at that time,
then the NOTIFY request may be sent with no content. A separate
NOTIFY containing location is subsequently generated so that the rate
of notification since the last NOTIFY falls between "min-rate" and
"max-rate". An important use case for location-based applications
focuses on the behavior of the initial NOTIFY message(s) and the
information it returns, for example in case of emergency call
routing. When an initial NOTIFY is transmitted, it might not include
complete state.
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 12]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
Subscriber Notifier
|---SUBSCRIBE(1)--->| Create subscription (w/large value
|<-------200--------| for min-rate and max-rate)
|<-----NOTIFY(2)----| Return initial notify with no state
|--------200------->|
| ... |
|<-----NOTIFY(3)----| Return full state (between min-rate
|--------200------->| and max-rate)
|---SUBSCRIBE(4)--->| Update subscription (to update
|<-------200--------| min-rate and max-rate)
Figure 9: SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY with Rate Control
Figure 9 shows a SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY exchange. The initial SUBSCRIBE
message (1) has filters attached and contains a "min-rate" rate
control parameter. In certain situations, it is important to obtain
some amount of location information within a relatively short and
pre-defined period of time, even if the obtained location information
contains a high amount of uncertainty and location information with
less uncertainty could be available at a later point in time. An
example is emergency call routing where an emergency services routing
proxy may need to obtain location information suitable for routing
rather quickly and subsequently a Public Safety Answering Point
requests location information for dispatch.
To obtain location information in a timely fashion using the
SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY mechanism, it is RECOMMENDED that the initial
SUBSCRIBE contain a "min-rate" rate control parameter (with a large
value, corresponding to a very short delay before the next
notification) that is updated in a later message to a more sensible
value. This provides equivalent functionality to the 'responseTime'
attribute in Section 6.1 of [RFC5985]. The "min-rate" for this first
request is therefore much larger (much more rapid) than the updated
"min-rate" value. Depending on the value in the "min-rate"
parameter, the Notifier may immediately send the initial NOTIFY
message (see message 2) without a body if no location information is
available at this point in time. The desired location information
may then arrive in the subsequent NOTIFY message (see message 3).
Updating the "min-rate" for the subscription can be performed in the
200 response (see message 3) to the NOTIFY that contains location
state, or in a subsequent SUBSCRIBE request (as in message 4).

5. Security Considerations
This document specifies one element, namely filters, utilized in
larger systems. As such, this document builds on a number of
specifications for the security of the complete solution, namely
o the SIP event notification mechanism, described in RFC 3265
[RFC3265], defining the SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY messages.
o the presence event package, described in RFC 3856 [RFC3856], which
is a concrete instantiation of the general event notification
framework.
o the filter framework, described in RFC 4661 [RFC4661], to offer
the ability to reduce the amount of notifications being sent.
Finally, this document indirectly (via the SIP presence event
package) relies on PIDF-LO, described in RFC 4119 [RFC4119], as the
XML container that carries location information.
Each of the documents listed above comes with a Security
Considerations section but the security and privacy aspects are best
covered by the SIP presence event package; see Section 9 of
[RFC3856], and with the GEOPRIV architectural description found in
[RFC6280].
The functionality offered by authorization policies to limit access
to location information is provided by other protocols, such as
Common Policy [RFC4745], Geolocation Policy [GEO-POLICY], or more
recent work around HTTP-Enabled Location Delivery (HELD) context
[HELD]. Although [GEO-POLICY] defines a standardized format for
geolocation authorization policies, it does not define specific
policies for controlling filters.
The functionality described in this document extends the filter
framework with location-specific filters. Local policies might be
Mahy, et al. Standards Track [Page 15]
RFC 6447 Location Filters January 2012
associated with the usage of certain filter constructs and with the
amount of notifications that specific filter settings might cause.
Uploading filters have a significant effect on the ways in which the
request is handled at a server. As a result, it is especially
important that messages containing this extension be authenticated
and authorized. RFC 4661 [RFC4661] discusses this security threat
and proposes authentication and authorization solutions applicable to
this specification.
