A radio access network (104) is informed as to the type of communication between a communication unit (102) and a network-based client (110), i.e., e nd points to the communication. Based on this information, the radio access network optimizes (206) a wireless interface between the radio access networ k and the communication unit. Either end point of a communication may inform t he radio access network of the communication type. In one embodiment, the communication type comprises information regarding a source encoder to be us ed during the communication. In another embodiment, optimization of the wireles s interface may be achieved through the selection of an optimal error correcti on scheme or through the compression and decompression of headers associated wi th a plurality of packet switched portions constituting the communication.</SDO AB>
