The method and system disclosed herein reduces total bandwidth requirement for communication in a voice over Internet protocol application. Sample [101] and convert [102] the analog input audio signal into digital signals and derive sampled frames [103]. Compute spacings of order statistics [104]. Measure the entropy for each of the sampled frames [105]. Set a threshold for entropy [106]. Mark the audio frames as active speech frames or inactive speech frames [107]. Mark an audio frame as an' inactive speech frame when the entropy is greater than the threshold, and mark the audio frame as an active speech frame when the entropy is lesser than the threshold [107]. Transmit only the active speech frames [108].
