1. An apparatus for transmitting data from a mobile communication terminal, comprising:
- an audio codec which converts a voice signal into digital voice data;
a detection unit which detects a pause in the digital voice data; and
a modulator/demodulator which modulates a signal with non-voice data, converts the modulated signal into an analog non-voice signal, and outputs the analog non-voice signal to the audio codec during the detected pause in the digital voice data, wherein the modulator/demodulator comprises;
a modulator that modulates the signal with the non-voice data during the detected pause in the digital voice data,a D/A converter that converts the modulated signal into the analog non-voice signal,a filter that filters the analog non-voice signal, anda Low Pass Filter that limits a frequency band of the filtered analog non-voice signal.

6. An apparatus for receiving data in a mobile communication terminal, comprising:
-
a detector which detects a presence of non-voice data in a received data stream; an audio codec which converts the non-voice data into an analog non-voice signal; and a modulator/demodulator which converts the analog non-voice signal into digital non-voice data when the presence of the non-voice data is detected in the received data stream, and demodulates the converted digital non-voice data, wherein the audio codec outputs a voice signal to a speaker. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A method for transmitting data from a mobile communication terminal, comprising:
-
converting, by an audio codec of the mobile communication terminal, a voice signal into digital voice data; detecting, by a detector of the mobile communication terminal, a pause in the digital voice data; modulating a signal with non-voice data, converting the modulated signal into an analog non-voice signal, and outputting the analog non-voice signal to the audio codec during the detected pause in the digital voice data; and transmitting data from the mobile communication terminal based at least on the analog non-voice signal output to the audio codec. - View Dependent Claims (13)

14. A method for receiving data in a mobile communication terminal, comprising:
-
receiving a data stream at the mobile communication terminal; detecting, by a detector of the mobile communication terminal, a presence of non-voice data in the data stream received by the mobile communication terminal; converting, by an audio codec of the mobile communication terminal, the non-voice data into an analog non-voice signal; converting, by a modulator/demodulator of the mobile communication terminal, the analog non-voice signal into digital non-voice data when the presence of the non-voice data is detected in the received stream; demodulating, by the modulator/demodulator of the mobile communication terminal, the converted digital non-voice; and converting voice data from the received data stream into an analog voice signal, outputting the analog voice signal to a speaker, and outputting the analog voice signal from the speaker. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A mobile communication terminal, comprising:
-
a transceiver which transmits and receives voice data; an audio codec which processes voice data; and a processor that cooperates with the audio codec to insert non-voice data between certain portions of voice data transmitted by the transceiver and to detect non-voice data inserted between certain portions of the received voice data, such that the non-voice data is transmitted and received together with the voice data through a single voice communication channel, wherein the processor comprises; an input unit which receives user input, and a detector which detects pauses in the voice data to be transmitted, wherein the detector compares sound characteristics of a user'"'"'s voice with sound characteristics of other sounds picked up by the input unit. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
