Introduction
This update to the present document has been prepared to address the following issues:
• ASN.1 definition corrections.
• ASN.1 provision as deliverable based module.
• Closer alignment to handover capabilities described in ES 201 671 [8].
• Refinement of the Internal management interface.
• Renaming of internal interfaces to align with ES 201 158 [9].
• Deletion of SDL as there is no real added value in the model.
• Removal of hanging paragraphs from introduction of each clause (compliance with ETSI drafting rules).
In addition every effort has been made to make the terminology consistent with other interception domain
specifications.

1 Scope
The present document describes the data content of a Lawful Interception interface in a TETRA system. It provides the
requirements and specification of the interface within a TETRA system for the purpose of providing data to Law
Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) in the area of Lawful Interception (LI) of communications.
The present document describes the internal LI interface of a TETRA network, and does not specify the means by
which data is delivered to the LEA or to its designated Law Enforcement Monitoring Facility (LEMF). However the
internal LI interface is defined in such a way that data may be carried transparently on most networks.
NOTE 1: In this context "internal" means within the boundary of the TETRA infrastructure. The boundary may
extend in such a manner that the TETRA LI function is remote from other components of the SwMI, or it
may be co-located with other SwMI components.

Figure 1: Model of TETRA interception
The general reference model of figure 1 shows that the overall LI interface lies between the LEMF and the TETRA
infrastructure (SwMI) and is composed of both the Handover Interface (described in ES 201 671 [8] and/or
TS 102 232 [11]) and the internal interception interface. The subject of the present document is the internal LI interface
that lies between the TETRA infrastructure and the mediation function.
The provision of a Lawful Interception interface for TETRA is a national option, however where it is provided it shall
be provided as described in the present document.
The Handover Interface may be the subject of national regulation and therefore the mediation function may be a matter
of national regulation.
The present document describes the data content of the information flows of the intercepted activity from the TETRA
system using ASN.1 but without respect to the encoding rules which are determined by the handover interface adopted.
The present document is structured as follows:
• clause 4 outlines the essential requirements for the TETRA LI interface;
• clause 5 presents the structural and behavioural models of the LI interface;
• clause 6 presents the data model and allocation behaviour in the LI interface.
The present document applies to TETRA services where access to the communication of TETRA Subscriber Identities
(TSIs) is available in a network (Switching and Management Infrastructure (SwMI) or Radio Packet Data Infrastructure
(RPDI)). Whilst this does not prohibit lawful interception of TETRA Direct Mode Operation (DMO) it removes the
liability of network operators and service providers to provide a result of interception when communication does not
make use of their networks.

The present document describes the normal and exceptional operation in each of the three operational phases of T-LI:
1) Setup:
The actions taken within the TETRA network to establish the monitoring of a target and the interception
communications paths for delivery.
2) Monitoring:
The monitoring of target activity and its delivery.
3) Cleardown:
The removal of a monitor facility against a target and the cleardown of the interception communications
paths.
The present document does not describe the means of transporting data from the TETRA network to the LEA, but
describes only the means of capturing and encoding the activities of a target within the TETRA network and delivering
this data to the mediation function.
The present document does not define the operations or technical requirements of the Handover Interface that takes data
from the mediation function to the Law Enforcement Monitoring Facility (LEMF).
The present document does not define the operations or technical requirements of the LEMF.
NOTE 2: The present document presupposes some familiarity with the operation of TETRA systems and of lawful
interception.
NOTE 3: The present document suggests a barrier to external manipulation of the TETRA infrastructure by means
of a mediation function.

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
call: any connection (fixed or temporary) capable of transferring information between two or more users of a
telecommunication system where at least one of the parties to the call (for the purposes of EN 301 040) is a user of a
TETRA system
content of communication: information exchanged between two or more users of a telecommunications service where
at least one of the users is accessing the service in a TETRA network whilst a call is established, excluding intercept
related information
NOTE 1: This includes information which may, as part of some TETRA service, be stored by one user for
subsequent retrieval by another.
NOTE 2: The user in the above definition may be any addressable entity in the TETRA domain using either a
TSI [3] or some other valid network address (undefined).
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC): time scale maintained by the Bureau International de l'Heure (BIH) that forms
the basis of a coordinated dissemination of standard frequencies and time signals
NOTE: The source of this definition is ITU-R Recommendation TF-460-6 [14]of the Consultative Committee on
International Radio (CCIR). CCIR has also defined the acronym for Coordinated Universal Time as UTC.
co-target: correspondent of the target (i.e. the individual or group address with whom the target is communicating)
identity: technical label which may represent the origin or destination of any TETRA traffic, as a rule clearly identified
by a physical communication identity number (such as a telephone number) or the logical or virtual communication
identity number (such as a personal number) which the subscriber can assign to a physical access on a case-by-case
basis
intercept related information: collection of information or data associated with TETRA services involving the target,
specifically call associated information or data, service associated information or data (e.g. service profile management
by subscriber) and location information

Interception (OR Lawful Interception): action (based on the law), performed by a network operator/service provider,
of making available certain information and providing that information to an LEMF
NOTE: In the present document the term interception is not used to describe the action of observing
communications by an LEA.
interception interface: physical and logical locations within the network operator's/service provider's TETRA facilities
where access to the content of communication and intercept related information is provided
NOTE: The interception interface is not necessarily a single, fixed point.
interception measure: technical measure which facilitates the interception of TETRA traffic pursuant to the relevant
national laws and regulations
interception subject: person or persons, specified in a lawful authorization, whose communications are to be
intercepted
Law Enforcement Agency (LEA): organization authorized by a lawful authorization based on a national law to
receive the results of communication interceptions
Law Enforcement Monitoring Facility (LEMF): law enforcement facility designated as the transmission destination
for the results of interception relating to a particular interception subject
lawful authorization: permission granted to an LEA under certain conditions to intercept specified communication and
requiring co-operation from a network operator/service provider
NOTE: Typically this refers to a warrant or order issued by a lawfully authorized body.
LI interface: physical and logical interface across which the results of interception are delivered from a network
operator/service provider to a LEMF
NOTE: In TS 101 331 [2] this interface is termed the handover interface. The term handover is used in TETRA
systems to describe the maintenance of a call when the mobile party moves between cells.
location information: information relating to the geographic, physical or logical location of an identity relating to an
interception subject
mediation function: function that lies between the LEA and the TETRA SwMI that translates data from the SwMI for
use by the collection function of the LEA
NOTE: The mediation function may be resident in the TETRA SwMI and is specified by the protocols and data
on the interface to the TETRA SwMI (as defined in the present document) and to the collection function
(as defined by the LEA).
multi-user gateway: reserved address given to a gateway port that is
