Abstract:
A system for monitoring performance of an aircraft windshield includes a sensor comprising a sensory contact and an evaluation unit. The sensory contact is in physical contact with one or more components of the windshield, and generates a signal representative of the performance of the component(s) of the windshield. An electrical connector is secured to the surface of the windshield facing the interior of the aircraft. The signal from the sensory contact passes through the connector to the evaluation unit. The evaluation unit acts on the signal to determine the performance of the component(s) of the windshield, wherein the evaluation unit is spaced from and out of physical contact with the windshield and the electrical connector, and is in electrical contact with the electrical connector.

Claim (Index 1):
A windshield monitoring system, comprising:\n a windshield comprising a heating arrangement for removing fog, ice, and/or snow from the windshield, the heating arrangement comprising a pair of spaced bus bars and an electrically conductive coating covering at least a portion of the windshield extending between and in electrical contact with the spaced bus bars; and a heater controller spaced apart from and in electrical contact with the windshield, comprising:\n a power supply configured to provide electrical current through the bus bars and through the electrically conductive coating to heat the electrically conductive coating, thereby heating at least an outer surface of the windshield, and \n an arc detection system comprising a sensory portion configured to measure voltage or current of an electrical signal passing from one of the bus bars to the power supply and an evaluation unit configured to determine a performance of the windshield based on the measured voltage or current.
