1. A method relating to a time when a wireless terminal reports an event to a network, the method implemented in the wireless terminal comprising:
- the wireless terminal detecting an event to be reported to the network;
the wireless terminal determining a communications condition affecting a communication between the wireless terminal and the network, wherein the communication being affected by the communications condition is the communication of reporting the detected event to the network; and
based on the communications condition, the wireless terminal adjusting a time-to-trigger period so that the event is reported by the wireless terminal to the network before the time-to-trigger period expires,the method further comprising;
determining a rate of change of a received signal parameter for a signal received from a base station currently serving the wireless terminal,wherein the communications condition is a based on the determined rate of change.

Abstract
A method, apparatus, and system are described relating to at time when a wireless terminal reports an event to a network. An event to be reported to the network is detected by the wireless terminal. A communications condition affecting a communication between the wireless terminal and the network is determined, and based on the detected communications condition, a dynamic time-to-trigger period is adjusted so that the event is reported by the wireless terminal to the network before the time-to-trigger period expires.
