Abstract
A method for suppressing data is provided that includes receiving a first packet communicated by an end user and identifying a difference in a comfort noise level associated with a second packet received as compared to the first packet. The second packet may be communicated without a data payload in cases where the difference in comfort noise level associated with the second packet as compared to the first packet is below a predetermined threshold.
