An alternative approach to a Layered Sensing System-of-Systems methodology, denoted as LSWR (Layered Sensing With radio), is outlined in this paper. This is a novel Broadcast-TV-Driven layered sensing technique that shows potential for finding embedded objects within, for example, buildings via leveraging and combining existing commercial satellite technologies with COTS (Commercial Off-the-Shelf) wireless network technologies and state-of-the-art wireless sensor mote technologies. Specifically, compact sensor mote technologies are employed in a cost-effective manner to interface with and control low-cost satellite radio/broadcast tuners. With this approach, initial concepts of this type are investigated via the analysis of compact custom sensor node technology (i.e. wireless sensor mote interfaced with satellite broadcast tuner) integrated onto a UGV (unmanned ground vehicle) robot arm for purposes developing prototype UGV robot systems with passive integrated RF sensors that support, for example, networked thru-wall embedded object detection. The primary category of commercial satellite signal considered for analysis within this paper is known as DVB (Digital Video Broadcast).

A number of potential advantages associated with a new concept denoted as sensor Agnostic Networks are discussed. For this particular paper, the primary focus is on integrated wireless networks that contain one or more MAVs (Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). The development and presentation includes several approaches to analysis and design of sensor Agnostic Networks based on the assumption of canonically structured architectures that are comprised of low-cost wireless sensor node technologies. A logical development is provided that motivates the potential adaptation of distributed low-cost sensor networks that leverage state-of-the-art wireless technologies and are specifically designed with pre-determined hooks, or facets, in-place that allow for quick and efficient sensor swaps between cost-low RF sensors, EO sensors, and Chem/Bio sensors. All of the sample design synthesis procedures provided within this paper conform to the structural low-cost electronic wireless network architectural constraints adopted for our new approach to generalized sensing applications via the conscious integration of sensor Agnostic capabilities.
