COMMS_ARCHITECTURE: THE TETHERED BOAT
Direct communication from underwater to the shore is physically impossible due to signal attenuation.
The Solution: The Rover (IDO) is physically tethered to a small surface boat.
The boat acts as a floating relay station. It receives data from the rover via cable and beams it to the
ground station using high-speed Wi-Fi/RF. The boat handles the heavy lifting; the rover just explores.
