Abstract

A method performed by a network node for controlling a Tracking Area Update, TAU, procedure of a User Equipment, UE The UE is configured with a first timer value relating to a first time interval to be used between subsequent signaled updates of the location of the UE in the TAU procedure. The network node determines that the UE is stationary when the UE has remained in the same tracking area for a period of time that exceeds a first threshold. When determined that the UE is stationary, the network node configures the UE with a second timer value relating to a second time interval to be used between subsequent signaled updates of the location of the UE in the TAU procedure. The time interval of second timer value is a time period longer than the time interval of the first timer value.
