Abstract
A method for controlling data communication in a terminal is provided. The method includes sensing whether a voice call occurs in the terminal, determining whether a data suspension condition is satisfied during the voice call, and suspending the data communication in the terminal during the voice call if the data suspension condition is satisfied. An apparatus for controlling data communication in a terminal is provided. The apparatus includes a communication unit configured to communicate data between the terminal and a base station, and a controller configured to detect whether a voice call occurs in the terminal, determine whether a data suspension condition is satisfied after the voice call occurs, and cause the communication unit to suspend the data communication in the terminal while the data suspension condition is satisfied.
