		Fessenden also invented the heterodyne system of radio reception, the sonic depth finder, the radio compass, submarine signaling devices, the smoke cloud (for tank warfare), and the turboelectric drive (for battleships).
		Fessenden further contributed in 1902 to the development of radio by demonstrating the heterodyneprinciple of converting high-frequency wireless signals to a lower frequency that is more easily controlled and amplified.
		Fessenden held over 500 patents by the time of his death, including ones for a high frequency alternator, a fathometer, a sonic depth finder and submarine signalling devices.
