Abstract

A method and system for providing Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) in a wireless communications system using a Packet Data Conversion Protocol (PDCP) with enhanced functionality that allows sub-packets to be processed for transmission over different Radio Bearers (RB) with unequal or different levels of error protection and/or error detection based on perceptual importance of the bits in the sub-packets. The enhanced PDCP being operable to partition a packet into a plurality of sub-packets such that different levels of error protection and/or error detection may be applied to the packet. An overall gain in system capacity can be expected due to transmit power savings provided via unequal error detection and error protection.
