System and method for routing aircrat sensor trend data to offboard datacenter for analytics

A method, comprising:

• obtaining, by at least one processor communicatively coupled to at least one sensor, sensor data from the at least one sensor, the sensor data associated with information obtained from the at least one sensor, the at least one sensor installed onboard an aircraft, the at least one processor installed onboard the aircraft;
• obtaining, by the at least one processor, at least one model;
• based at least on the sensor data and the at least one model, inferring, by the at least one processor, at least one trend associated with the sensor data, each of the at least one trend associated with one or more given sensors of the at least one sensor, the one or more given sensors associated with a particular aircraft subsystem;
• determining, by the at least one processor, that one or more of the at least one trend is to be communicated to an offboard destination;
• packetizing, by the at least one processor, each trend of the one or more of the at least one trend as at least one packet;
• tagging, by the at least one processor, each packet with information associated with one of at least two priority levels, the at least two priority levels including first and second priority levels, wherein the first priority level is relatively lower in priority than the second priority level;
• for each tagged packet, determining, by the at least one processor, at least part of a route that said tagged packet is to be communicated along based at least on a priority level associated with said tagged packet;
• and
• for each tagged packet, outputting, by the at least one processor, said tagged packet to an electromagnetic (EM) emitter for communication along said determined at least part of the route.
