Nowadays, in any airborne platform like Fighters, helicopter or a transport aircraft there are
thousands of sensors which are used to measure various parameters (temperature, level,
pressure, positions and more) and the results are then conveyed through the wires to the on
board computers that process them. Therefore, the interconnections of multiple sensors
results in a great amount of cables (normally, hundreds of kilometres of cables are used),

Nowadays, in any airborne platform like Fighters, helicopter or a transport aircraft there are thousands of sensors which are used to measure various parameters (temperature, level, pressure, positions and more) and the results are then conveyed through the wires to the on board computers that process them. Therefore, the interconnections of multiple sensors results in a great amount of cables (normally, hundreds of kilometres of cables are used), generating high complexity (both in design and production), high weight and high costs. The aim of this project is to design a WSN on an airborne platform which will then be monitored through a mobile application on ground. Implementing a WSN based system is cost effective as the system is completely wireless leading the way for additional benefits like savings in weight, space, and cost from cabling as compared to a wired sensor network. Monitoring through a mobile application will prevent accidents or damage to the airborne platform by timely alerting the ground based user, who can then take suitable action to avert catastrophe in case of emergency. The proposal would also entail an overall addition for effective performance of manpower with an increased efficiency and a greater awareness of operational and equipment health status of the platform. The mobile App for analysis and monitoring of sensor data can further enhance the performance.
