Submarine detection system
Submarine detection systems are an aspect of antisubmarine warfare and nuclear deterrence. They break down into two categories; acoustic and non-acoustic.
Acoustic systems in turn break down into active sonar and passive sonar systems.
Non-acoustic systems can work on a variety of different physical principles, including the use of magnetic anomaly detectors[1] and detection of trace chemicals of radioactivity in a submarine's wake.[2]
