16 LI for Group Communications using GCSE |R12| Word‑p. 185
16.1 Background
There are several scenarios possible for the interception of group communications involving GCSE (see TS 22.468 and TS 23.468). First is where the GCSE AS is part of an operator's network. Second is where the GCSE AS is outside of the intercepting operator's network. This clause specifies LI solutions for both cases.
16.2 GCSE AS in Operator Network
16.2.0 General
In the case where the GCSE AS is in the operator's network, the ICE in this case will be the GCSE AS as it is fully aware of the group communications as well as the parties on the communications. The solution is very similar to the conferencing solution specified in Clause 11, where the main difference is that a single functional entity (the GCSE AS) is utilized for GCSE, rather than two functional entities.

16.2.1 Provision of Content of Communications
16.2.1.0 General
Figure 16.2 shows the interception of the content of communications for GCSE at the GCSE AS is performed based on identifying the target of interception being a member of a group communication at the GCSE AS.
