Abstract

A system, method, and device for minimizing uplink registration or location reports, such as route update messages, for fixed or low-mobility devices. An access terminal is configured to transmit route update messages to a radio access network at a first rate and also at a reduced rate that is lower than the first rate. The access terminal is configured to transmit to the radio access network a request to allow the access terminal to use a reduced reporting function that causes the access terminal to transmit route update messages at a reduced rate that is lower than the first rate, receive a response that grants permission to use the reduced reporting function, and transmit route update messages at the reduced rate in accordance with the reduced reporting function.
