Abstract: Many parameters can be measured and stored in the black box. The details stored in the black box are essential for the analysis of causes of the accident. In the formal black box, data is stored and it can be retrieved only after the identification of black box after crash. So it is very difficult to identify the exact location of the black box after a crash. Many leading officials and famous personalities died in air crashes and it takes a lot of time to identify the location of crash. It leads to wastage of money and time. Saving human life is the basic nature of humanity. In this article, black box data is transmitted to an earth station. The details are updated to the base station through wireless medium. It is transmitted to selected base stations by calculating the shortest path between them using ad hoc algorithm. Ad hoc algorithm is a multi hop network algorithm which switches to various stations by calculating its distance. Thus black box data is updated to base station wirelessly using ad hoc algorithm.

Keywords: flight data recorder; ad hoc algorithm; wireless communication; black box; on board data.
