A method and an apparatus for clustering Internet protocol (IP) packets in a wireless network are provided. The method includes receiving, by a network device in the wireless network, a plurality of IP packets from an upper layer of a user equipment (UE) in the wireless network or vice versa, initiating a timer on receiving the plurality of IP packets from the upper layer, forming a cluster of IP packets having a predetermined maximum size while the timer is running, stopping the timer once the formation of the cluster is completed, and transmitting the cluster of IP packets to a lower layer of the UE, where the lower layer treats the cluster of IP packets as a single payload to minimize the IP packets handled at the lower layer of the UE.
