1. A communication apparatus, comprising:
a radio transceiver, configured to transmit or receive wireless signals to or from a network device in a wireless network; and
a processor, coupled to the radio transceiver and configured to perform operations comprising:
initiating a communication procedure to communicate with the network device by transmitting a predetermined message via the radio transceiver;
starting a timer for counting a predetermined time period, wherein the processor is configured to not retransmit the predetermined message before the predetermined time period expires;
determining an action indicator regarding transmission of the predetermined message according to information regarding network environment in which the predetermined message is transmitted, wherein the action indicator is a predicted possibility of a message between the communication apparatus and the network being successfully received;
determining a follow-up action to be performed after the transmission of the predetermined message based on the action indicator, comprising: comparing the action indicator with a plurality of thresholds; and
performing the follow-up action according to the comparison result, wherein the follow-up action alters the predetermined time period according to the comparison result.
