First Claim
1. A wireless communication unit configured to be located in a nacelle associated with an engine of an aerial vehicle for communicating engine data within a time window, the wireless communication unit comprising:
- one or more memory devices; and
one or more processors configured to;
receive data;
separate the data into categories;
for each of the categories;
create a separate file comprising the separated data corresponding to the respective category; and
name the separate file, at least in part, based on the respective category and based on a file naming convention, the naming convention based at least in part on a wireless communication unit associated with the separated data;
prioritize the created files;
transmit an identification file comprising identification information for the wireless communication unit and the file naming convention; and
transmit the created files in an order based on the priority associated with the created files, wherein the higher the priority associated with a particular created file, the earlier the particular created file is transmitted, and wherein the wireless communication unit is identifiable based on the name of the file.
