The illustrative methods of enhanced user privacy control operation
Fig. 2 (a)-2 (d) illustrates the unified flow chart of the illustrative methods of the enhancing privacy of user that uses in travelling carriage LCS.Flow process between Fig. 2 (a) and Fig. 2 (b) connects by unit 214,220,230 and 232 representatives.Similarly, the flow process between Fig. 2 (a) and Fig. 2 (c) connects by unit 202,208 and 223 representatives.Flow process between Fig. 2 (b) and Fig. 2 (c) connects by unit 258 representatives.Flow process between Fig. 2 (b) and Fig. 2 (d) connects by unit 214 and 246 representatives.Flow process between Fig. 2 (c) and Fig. 2 (d) connects by unit 246 representatives.
A kind of state of unit 202 representatives among Fig. 2 (a), during this state, privacy engine 120 (Fig. 1) is waited for the request (position requests just) that receives locator data information.In step 204, privacy engine 120 connects the receiving position request via the data of above describing with reference to Fig. 1.About this exemplary implementation, position data request can comprise any one in the following message: the 1) type of the network address and position requests application; 2) requestor's classification (for example, emergency services, business service, individual); 3) requestor's identity (if available); 4) be used for the code word or the digital certificate of requestor's authentication; 5) requested service quality (QoS).Communications field those skilled in the art obviously can understand, the scope of the present invention's instruction comprises the use to other type position data request, for example, geographical area information, user profile, applicant information, coordinate system etc. are as can be required in realizing other execution mode.
Referring again to Fig. 2 (a), in step 206, position request counter is initialized as null value.The null value representative receives only the situation of a position requests.If when handling the primary importance request, receive position requests subsequently, then position request counter adds up and successively decreases, and is as mentioned below.The purpose of position request counter is, carries out the management of a plurality of concurrent position requests.
Unit's 208 representatives connect from the flow process of Fig. 2 (c).As described below, need only the position requests that receives when handling the previous position request subsequently, just connect 208, by the step process position data request of the inventive method after the step 286 of Fig. 2 (c) via flow process.
In step 210, privacy engine 120 (Fig. 1) calls selected privacy policy, and it has distributed privacy classes for the position requests that (or via unit 208) receives during step 204.As mentioned above, privacy policy comprises a tabulation, be used for distributing privacy classes to position requests, and privacy rule, it is used for making a strategic decision based on the privacy classes of being distributed.
Referring again to Fig. 1, privacy engine 120 can call application module 114, other module 124 or travelling carriage module and assembly not shown in the drawings selectively, to carry out the classification to position data request.For example, can call network application, with the checking digital certificate data.
Referring again to Fig. 2 (a), in step 212, the estimated position request msg is to determine whether position requests is emergency service request.According to common legal requirements, emergency service request should have precedence over privacy policy, and should try one's best promptly to requestor's home position data.For emergency service request, this method connects 214 via flow process and enters step 256 (Fig. 2 (b)), skipping privacy policy, and booster response.For non-emergency request, this method enters step 216.
In step 216, the estimated position request msg is to determine whether to exist other requirement that must have precedence over privacy policy.For example, some country may require to give from law enforcement or the request of other government organs with preferentially.If require preferentially, then this method enters step 256 via flow process connection 214, to quicken processing.If do not require preferentially, then this method enters step 218.
Referring again to Fig. 2 (a), in step 218, privacy engine 120 (Fig. 1) invoking privacy strategy with based on the rule that is associated with the privacy classes of distributing to this request, determines whether refuse this position requests.Can be based on the definite refusal of a plurality of criterions to request position information.In first example, refusing this request may be commercial entities because of the requestor, and distributes to the automatic refusal of privacy classes appointment of commercial entities.In second example, refusing this request may be because requestor's identity is a private personal, and it has been in to have specifies the privacy classes of the rule of refusal automatically.In the 3rd example, refusing this request may be because position data request does not comprise the digital certificate or the password of authorization request person's identity, and the default privacy class of classification comprises the rule of specifying automatic refusal hereto.In the 4th example, the user may select to specify all position requests outside those position requests that relate to emergency services to be in a privacy classes, refusal automatically in this privacy classes specifies in during the special time.The wireless communication field those skilled in the art obviously can understand, and comprise many other examples in the scope of the present invention's instruction.
If refuse this position requests in the decision-making that step 218 is carried out, then calculating location not, and this method enters step 222, there, sends service-denial message to location request application.As described below, with reference to the description of figure 2 (b) flow chart, also can after the step 238 or 242 of Fig. 2 (b), connect 220 implementation steps 222 in more detail via flow process.After step 222, the inventive method connects 223 steps 282 that enter Fig. 2 (c) via process flow.As what will describe in detail hereinafter, this method was checked position request counter in step 282 before turning back to idle condition treatment step 202 or carrying out the step of further handling, waiting in line to determine whether extra position requests.
Return Fig. 2 (a), if determine should not refuse this request in steps in decision-making 218, invoking privacy strategy in step 224 then is to determine whether to require user notification.If determine not require user notification in step 224, then the inventive method connects 230 steps 250 that enter Fig. 2 (b) via flow process, to be further processed.This is described in detail in description about Fig. 2 (b) below.
If determine to require user notification in step 224, then in step 226, (Fig. 1) transmits notice to the user via user interface 106.User interface 106 can utilize sound, image, vibration or other device to remind subscriber location request to be allowed, and may use figure, text or audio frequency to show or other expression way transmits the information that relates to position requests, for example requestor's classification, requestor's identity and/or the QoS that asked.
In step 228, privacy engine 120 invoking privacy strategies are to determine whether position requests requires the user to respond except that user notification.If not, then the inventive method connects 230 steps 250 that enter Fig. 2 (b) via flow process, to be further processed.If require the user to respond, then in step 232, start the timing of user's response is waited for.
Fig. 2 (b) is the continuation of unified flow chart Fig. 2 (a)-Fig. 2 (c), from step 232 (timing to user's response is waited for).Step 234,236 and 238 representatives may stop regularly waiting in the step 232 the possible incident of period.Step 240 representative may occur in the incident of regularly waiting in the step 232 in the period.
If it is that user's incident that accepts request by representative in the step 234 stops that the timing of the user in the step 232 response is waited for, then position data request is sent to step 250, to be further processed.
If responding, the user in the step 232 regularly waits for it being that overtime incident by step 236 representative stops, and do not have the user to respond that then position data request is sent to step 242, this method enters step 242, to be further processed.Step 242 invoking privacy strategy is to determine whether lack user's response requires refusal.Respond the requirement refusal if lack the user, then the inventive method enters step 222 (being shown in Fig. 2 (a)) via flow process connection 220.Do not require refusal if lack user's response, then this method enters step 250, to be further processed.
Regularly wait for it being that incident (user refuses request) by step 238 representative stops if the user in the step 232 responds, then the inventive method connects 220 via flow process and enters step 222, and it is shown among Fig. 2 (a).
Shown in Fig. 2 (b), if the timing waiting time in step 232 receives new position request, just, the incident of step 240 representative (may have new position request to arrive at waiting time) betides the user and responds before the regularly wait termination, then transmit the new position request data that privacy engine 120 (Fig. 1) receives, and this method enters step 244.
Still with reference to Fig. 2 (b), in step 244, estimate new position request, to determine whether this request is emergency service request.For emergency service request, this method connects 246 via flow process and enters step 288 (Fig. 2 (d)).In step 288, position request counter adds up, and this method enters step 290.In step 290, suspend the previous position processing of request, and be placed in the formation, wait for processing subsequently, as will be explained hereinafter.(not shown) in another embodiment, this method may change termination into to the previous position processing of request in step 290.(not shown) in another execution mode, generator make PD module 122 (Fig. 1) can handle a plurality of simultaneous requests.After step 290, this method connects 214 via flow process and enters step 256 (Fig. 2 (b)), to quicken the processing to emergency service request.If new request is not flash request, then this method directly enters step 248 (figure (2b)) from step 244.
