This paper discusses modern approaches to the creation of a highly reliable data transmission system for unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) operating under interference conditions. In contrast to existing solutions, an improved communication algorithm is proposed to ensure uninterrupted transmission of video, telemetry, and control signals even in highly unstable environments. The study identifies the main technical requirements for data transmission and evaluates the key parameters of the communication channel. The proposed hybrid communication system utilizes adaptive channel switching, data compression, and equipment reconfiguration, improving data transmission stability and reducing latency. A comparative analysis of existing communication technologies reveals the limitations of acoustic, optical, and radio wave systems. A conceptual architecture combining these technologies provides optimal data transmission by adapting to the environment. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the system, demonstrating reliable operation even with 80% packet loss in public Internet networks. The system’s adaptability, low latency, and dynamic routing make it suitable for real-time USV operations, including environmental monitoring, scientific research, and search and rescue missions. Its potential extends to commercial and dual applications requiring sustained data transmission in challenging maritime environments.
