Abstract: Provided are embodiments for a system and method for performing real-time performance and health monitoring of an ice detector system. Embodiments include sensing, by a current sensor, a current parameter of a drive coil of an ice detector circuit, and monitoring a performance and health of the ice detector circuit based at least in part on the current parameter, where the drive coil is coupled to a feedback coil that is configured to provide a feedback signal to a driver circuit to control the drive coil. Embodiments also include comparing the performance of the ice detector circuit and expected performance of the ice detector circuit, and providing a report based at least in part on the comparison.

Abstract: A monitoring device is provided herein. The monitoring device is in communication with one or more air data systems. The monitoring device includes a processor and a memory storing program instructions thereon. The program instructions executable by the processor to implement a model. The model includes a monitoring and comparing layer utilizing parameters from the one or more air data systems to measure a performance and determine a drift. The model includes an estimating layer providing a degradation model determining a degradation of health parameters of the one or more air data systems. The model includes a predicting layer monitoring changes and patterns in the drift and the degradation of health parameters.
