Abstract

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting data traffic at the application layer of a communication device and dividing the application data into two groups, C-plane and U-plane, based on delay-sensitive and non-delay-sensitive characteristics. The method involves determining whether the data traffic is delay-sensitive, routing the data traffic to a control plane group within the application layer if it is determined to be delay-sensitive, and transmitting the data traffic over the control plane using a wireless connection to a remote device in accordance with system timing designated for control plane traffic. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
