SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 is the Slovenian version of ETSI ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1. It specifies the Open Service Access (OSA) Application Programming Interface (API) for the Mobility Service Capability Feature (SCF) in Parlay 4, so application developers can use standardized network interfaces for user location and user status services.
What does SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 specify?
SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 specifies the Mobility SCF part of the OSA API Stage 3 specification. It defines how applications interact with network functions for location and status reporting, including the service interfaces, callback interfaces, data types, and the model used to describe behavior.
The document is organized from general API rules to specific mobility services. Clause 1 gives the scope, clause 2 lists references, clause 3 gives definitions and abbreviations, clause 4 explains the Mobility SCF structure, and clauses 5 to 12 cover sequence diagrams, class diagrams, interface specifications, state transitions, service properties, data definitions, and exception classes.

What are the key requirements of SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005?
The central requirement is that an implementation that supports a method shall implement the behavior described for that method for at least one valid parameter set. In practice, this means a service cannot claim support for a method without actually providing a usable function path for real requests.
Service and callback behavior
SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 uses a service interface on the network side and an application interface for callbacks. Clause 7 explains that asynchronous methods use Req, Res, and Err naming, and the application developer must implement the matching IpApp<name> interface to receive results, reports, and error callbacks. That matters because the service often returns later, not in the original call.
Clause 7 also defines the generic IpService interface. setCallback() binds the application callback interface, while setCallbackWithSessionID() does the same for a specific session. This is important for implementations that track a call or call leg through a session identifier.
User Location service
Clause 8.1 states that the User Location service (UL) supports geographical location and status of fixed, mobile, and IP based telephony users. A User Location SCF shall implement either IpUserLocation or IpTriggeredUserLocation as a minimum, and it shall provide one of the basic request paths such as interactive location, extended location, or periodic reporting.
IpUserLocation supports interactive and periodic location retrieval. IpAppUserLocation receives the location results or errors. In practice, this lets an application ask for a one-time location or subscribe to repeated reports.
IpTriggeredUserLocation adds location-change reporting based on trigger conditions. IpAppTriggeredUserLocation receives the triggered reports. That is useful when the application wants updates only when a user enters or leaves a defined area.
User Location Camel service
Clause 8.2 defines User Location Camel (ULC) for network-related location information rather than geographic coordinates. The service can return items such as VLR Number, Location Area Identification (LAI), and Cell Global Identification (CGI). A ULC implementation shall support IpUserLocationCamel, and it shall provide at least one of interactive, periodic, or triggered reporting.
This matters when the application needs mobile-network context, not only coordinates. The callback side uses IpAppUserLocationCamel to receive the reported network location data.
Emergency location handling
Clause 8.3 defines User Location Emergency (ULE) for emergency calls. A Mobility SCF shall implement IpUserLocationEmergency, with either direct emergency location requests or subscription to network-initiated emergency reports. The application receives the information through IpAppUserLocationEmergency.
This section is designed for cases where the network may identify the caller immediately or may first provide identifiers that can later be used to obtain the location. That is important for emergency service applications that must handle incomplete or delayed location information.
User Status service
Clause 8.4 defines the User Status service (US) for fixed, mobile, and IP-based telephony users. A User Status SCF shall implement IpUserStatus, with either interactive status requests or triggered status reporting. The callback interface IpAppUserStatus receives the results.
In practice, this supports applications that need to know whether a user is reachable, busy, or not reachable, and to subscribe to status changes over time.
Service properties and parameter limits
Clause 10 defines service properties that a specific service instance shall set, including permitted application types and subtypes, whether altitude can be obtained, supported location methods, supported priorities, and limits such as maximum interactive requests, maximum triggered users, maximum periodic users, and minimum periodic interval duration. This is the part an operator or integrator checks when deciding whether a deployment can support a given application workload.
Clause 11 defines the data structures that carry location, status, triggers, and emergency identifiers. These definitions matter because they fix how an implementation should package a request or response, including uncertainty shapes, trigger criteria, and whether fields such as altitude or timestamp are present.
What terms does SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 define?
- Open Service Access (OSA) - An architecture that lets application developers use network functionality through standardized APIs.
- Service Capability Feature (SCF) - A service capability exposed through the API, such as Mobility, User Location, or User Status.
- User Location (UL) - The general service for obtaining geographical location and related status for users.
- User Location Camel (ULC) - The mobility service that returns network-related location information for mobile telephony users.
- User Location Emergency (ULE) - The specialized service for emergency-call location handling.
- User Status (US) - The service that reports whether a user is reachable, busy, or not reachable.
- Unified Modelling Language (UML) - The modeling notation used for the sequence diagrams, class diagrams, and state transition diagrams.
- Interface Definition Language (IDL) - The interface description format given in Annex A.
Who uses SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005?
Telecom application developers use this standard to build applications that request location or status data through OSA interfaces. Network platform and service developers use it to implement the service and callback interfaces, the data types, and the state behavior.
Operators and integrators use it when exposing mobility services to third-party or internal applications, especially for emergency handling, mobile-network location, and user status reporting. Test and quality teams use it to verify supported methods, callback behavior, parameter validation, and service properties.
What changed in SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 from the previous edition?
Annex E records a large set of changes across the Parlay 4.0 and 4.1 versions. The most visible changes are the conversion of many request and callback return types from TpSessionID to TpAssignmentID, plus a change in TpMobilityStopAssignmentData so that the assignment identifier uses TpAssignmentID.
The change record also shows method-level updates such as removed exceptions for some User Location requests and revised exception handling for User Location Camel periodic reporting. It lists added, deprecated, modified, and removed items for interfaces, methods, data definitions, service properties, and exceptions.
Which standards are used with SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005?
SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 uses ES 202 915-1 for the overview, definitions, and abbreviations, and ES 202 915-2 for the common data definitions shared across the OSA API family. Those two parts provide the foundation that this Mobility SCF part builds on.
The foreword also states that a subset of this document is in 3GPP TS 29.198-6 V5.2.0 (Release 5). Clause 10 and clause 11 additionally refer to TS 123 271 and TS 129 002 for specific location and identifier coding details used by some data items and service properties.
What does the SIST ES 202 915-6 V1.2.1:2005 document contain?
The body of the document contains sequence diagrams for interactive, periodic, and triggered location and status reporting, including emergency scenarios. It also contains class diagrams that show how service interfaces and application callback interfaces relate to each other.
Clause 7 and clause 8 give the interface signatures, method descriptions, callback patterns, and minimum implementation rules for UL, ULC, ULE, and US. Clause 9 provides state transition diagrams for User Location Camel and User Status, showing the active service states and the method calls that drive transitions.
Clause 10 defines service properties and includes an example property table for User Location services. Clause 11 gives the data structures for geographical position, trigger criteria, mobile identifiers, emergency requests, and user status, while clause 12 lists the exception classes used by the API.
Annex A gives the OMG IDL form, Annex B gives the WSDL form, and Annex C points to the Java API description. Annex E is a change record that helps implementers track how the interfaces and data definitions evolved between versions.

1 Scope
The present document is part 6 of the Stage 3 specification for an Application Programming Interface (API) for Open
Service Access (OSA).
The OSA specifications define an architecture that enables application developers to make use of network functionality
through an open standardised interface, i.e. the OSA APIs.
The present document specifies the Mobility Service Capability Feature (SCF) aspects of the interface. All aspects of
the Mobility SCF are defined here, these being:
• Sequence Diagrams
• Class Diagrams
• Interface specification plus detailed method descriptions
• State Transition diagrams
• Data Definitions
• IDL Description of the interfaces
• WSDL Description of the interfaces
• Reference to the Java API description of the interfaces
The process by which this task is accomplished is through the use of object modelling techniques described by the
Unified Modelling Language (UML).

4 Mobility SCF
The following clauses describe each aspect of the Mobility Service Capability Feature (SCF).
The order is as follows:
• The Sequence diagrams give the reader a practical idea of how each of the SCFs is implemented.
• The Class relationships clause show how each of the interfaces applicable to the SCF, relate to one another.
• The Interface specification clause describes in detail each of the interfaces shown within the Class diagram
part.
• The State Transition Diagrams (STD) show the transition between states in the SCF. The states and transitions
are well-defined; either methods specified in the Interface specification or events occurring in the underlying
networks cause state transitions.
• The Data Definitions clause show a detailed expansion of each of the data types associated with the methods
within the classes. Note that some data types are used in other methods and classes and are therefore defined
within the Common Data types part ES 202 915-2.
4.1 General requirements on support of methods
An implementation of this API which supports or implements a method described in the present document, shall

5.1 User Location Sequence Diagrams
5.1.1 User Location Interrogation - Triggered Request
The following sequence diagram shows how an application requests triggered location reports from the User Location
service. When users location changes, the service reports this to the application.
: IpAppTriggeredUserLocation : IpTriggeredUserLocation
1: triggeredLocationReportingStartReq( )
2: triggeredLocationReport( )
3: triggeredLocationReport( )
New reports are sent until the
triggered reporting is stopped
4: triggeredLocationReportingStop( )
1: This message is used to start triggered location reporting for one or several users.
2: When the trigger condition is fulfilled then this message passes the location of the affected user to its callback
object.
3: This is repeated until the application stops triggered location reporting (see next message).
4: This message is used to stop triggered location reporting.
