A method and system for voice call resource reallocation in a downlink dual carrier. The method includes: monitoring status of timeslots dedicated to voice calls in different transceivers (TRXs) of a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) and obtaining from each TRX a respective priority of each timeslot of the TRX dedicated to voice calls; obtaining a priority for voice calls of each empty timeslot in the different TRXs; and reallocating at least one timeslot already dedicated to voice calls to at least one empty timeslot when the priority for voice calls of the at least one empty timeslot is higher than the priority for voice calls of at least one timeslot already dedicated to voice calls.
