Method and apparatus for efficient data transmission control in a wireless voice-over-data communication system

An apparatus for transmitting time-sensitive information in a communication system, comprising:

• at least one processor for determining a number of bits contained within at least one time-sensitive data frame comprising at least a portion of a data stream;
• wherein the at least one processor is for adding at least one random bit to any data frames that does not contain at least a predetermined number of bits based on the determination, wherein the data stream does not comprise the at least one random bit, wherein the at least one processor is for adding a number of the at least one random bits until a predetermined ratio of maximum time-sensitive frame size to minimum time-sensitive frame size within the data stream is achieved, wherein the predetermined ratio corresponds to a level of distortion;
• and
• a memory for storing said at least one time-sensitive data frame.
