A method for downhole communication between multiple sets of sensors along a single wire bus includes communicating between a first set of sensors through the single wire bus. The first set of sensors include legacy sensors communicating at a legacy communication frequency. The method also includes communicating between a second set of sensors through the single wire bus. The second set of sensors communicates at a second communication frequency an order of magnitude greater than the legacy communication frequency. Further, the method includes communicating between a third set of sensors through the single wire bus. The third set of sensors communicates at a third communication frequency an order of magnitude greater than the legacy communication frequency.
