CLIAMS:We claim:
1. A lawful interception device comprising:
a memory;
a processor coupled to the memory storing processor executable instructions which when executed by the processor causes the processor to:
monitor a telecommunication call of a lawful interception target subscriber;
detect a call-release trigger associated with the telecommunication call;
initiate a media plane audit of the telecommunication call to determine whether the call-release trigger is a false release trigger, wherein the media plane audit determines whether media plane resources for the telecommunication call is released in response to the call-release trigger; and
perform at least one call handling action in response to determining a false release trigger.
2. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the call-release trigger is a pattern of Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signals.
3. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 2, wherein the DTMF signal pattern is reported to an external law enforcement agency.
4. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the at least one call handling action comprises at least one of releasing the media plane resources, terminating telecommunication call interception, and continuing the telecommunication call.
5. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 4, further comprising instructions to calculate a wait time until expiry of which to continue the telecommunication call after determination of the false release trigger.
6. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the wait time is based on at least one of a predefined minimum time duration, a predefined maximum time duration, load of one or more telecom interception devices, and congestion of network paths associated with the telecommunication call.
7. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 5, further comprising instructions to terminate the telecommunication call on expiration of the wait time.
8. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 7, wherein terminating the telecommunication call comprises releasing resources of the telecommunication call and terminating lawful interception (LI).
9. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 7, further comprising instructions to provide a call termination report to the law enforcement agency, wherein the call termination report comprises an information of real reason for release of resources.
10. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 5, further comprising providing a status update of the telecommunication call to Lawful enforcement Agencies (LEA), during the continuing of the telecommunication call till the expiry of the wait time.
11. A method for improving lawful interception of a call, comprising:
monitoring, by a lawful interception device, a telecommunication call of a lawful interception target subscriber;
detecting, by the lawful interception device, a call-release trigger associated with the telecommunication call;
initiating, by the lawful interception device, a media plane audit of the telecommunication call to determine whether the call-release trigger is a false release trigger, wherein the media plane audit determines whether media plane resources for the telecommunication call is released in response to the call-release trigger; and
performing, by the lawful interception device, at least one call handling action in response to determining a false release trigger.
12. The method as claimed in claim 11, wherein the call-release trigger is a pattern of Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signals.
13. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein the DTMF signal pattern is reported to an external law enforcement agency.
14. The method as claimed in claim 11, wherein the at least one call handling action comprises at least one of releasing the media plane resources, terminating telecommunication call interception, and continuing the telecommunication call.
15. The method as claimed in claim 14, further comprising instructions to calculate a wait time until expiry of which to continue the telecommunication call after determination of the false release trigger.
16. The method as claimed in claim 15, wherein the wait time is based on at least one of a predefined minimum time duration, a predefined maximum time duration, load of one or more telecom interception devices, and congestion of network paths associated with the telecommunication call.
17. The method as claimed in claim 15, further comprising instructions to terminate the telecommunication call on expiration of the wait time.
18. The method as claimed in claim 17, wherein terminating the telecommunication call comprises releasing resources of the telecommunication call and terminating lawful interception (LI).
19. The method as claimed in claim 17, further comprising instructions to provide a call termination report to the law enforcement agency, wherein the call termination report comprises an information of real reason for release of resources.
20. The lawful interception device as claimed in claim 15, further comprising providing a status update of the telecommunication call to Lawful enforcement Agencies (LEA), during the continuing of the telecommunication call till the expiry of the wait time.
21. A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon that when processed by at least one processor cause a system to perform operations comprising:
monitoring a telecommunication call of a lawful interception target subscriber;
detecting a call-release trigger associated with the telecommunication call;
initiating a media plane audit of the telecommunication call to determine whether the call-release trigger is a false release trigger, wherein the media plane audit determines whether media plane resources for the telecommunication call is released in response to the call-release trigger; and
performing at least one call handling action in response to determining a false release trigger.
