Abstract	The Future Battlefield Commander relies on Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Information, Intelligence (C4I2) tools to perform optimally in his given tasks in versatile and hostile environments. The concept of war has changed from traditional wars to the asymmetric wars. This paper describes main use cases of a new network concept, the Wireless Polling Sensor Network (WPSN) for the Dismounted Future Warrior. The appearance of Unmanned Vehicles (UVs) gives an edge to gain and transmit information from designated hostile areas to decision making process ensuring mission success and reduced fratricide. New principles determine how this new technology can be adapted in Future Warriors at different levels. The main use cases are solutions of this technology in road bomb detection, location in built up areas, and, finally, in Special Operations. This paper is based on a study of the main use cases of the WSPN and thereby discusses the usage principles, and the results representing the ideas of applying the WPSN technology. The three questions to be answered are: What is the structure of the WPSN like? What are the main advantages of the WPSN over the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)? Which are the typical scenarios in which the WPSN can be benefitted of? Main output of the paper is to point out the possibilities to utilize the WPSN via use cases.
