  • Patent number: 12071249
    Abstract: A method and a device are disclosed for determining icing on an aircraft, as well as an aircraft. The method can include acquiring a current flight state of the aircraft, acquiring current flight conditions of the aircraft, estimating an estimated power feed of a power supply of the aircraft for the current flight state under the current flight conditions, comparing the estimated power feed with an actual power feed of the power supply of the aircraft, and determining a presence of icing on the aircraft when a probability of an existence of icing conditions exceeds a predetermined probability threshold and the estimated power feed exceeds the actual power feed by a predetermined amount.
