Lawful interception method and architecture for transparent transmission of interception information

摘要

A system, method, and gateway in a telecommunication network for providing intercepted Content of Communications (CC) information from an Intercepting Control Element (ICE) to a Law Enforcement Monitoring Facility (LEMF). The system splits the intercepted CC information into CC control and CC payload information. A control point receives the control information and controls the gateway in accordance with the control information. The gateway receives the payload information and routes it to the LEMF over a payload Handover Interface.
