Neutrino submarine communication possesses many potential advantages over traditional methods. Difficulties in realizing neutrino communications lie in detecting the neutrino signals and aiming the neutrino beams at submarine directions. A theoretic systems project was brought forward in an attempt to use the deflecting magnetic field to cover a large communication signal range according to the typical requirements of submarine communication. A method to reckon the magnitude of the deflecting magnetic field was introduced. The required volume of Cherenkov detector in receiving the neutrino signals and the event frequency of detecting neutrinos were analyzed; and the flux of neutrino beams was derived. The analytic result shows that it is almost impossible to use neutrinos for submarine communications in terms of the present technology. (4 pages)
