    Abstract: An aircraft ice detection system (10; 100A; 100B; 100C) is configured to determine a condition of a cloud (12) and includes a radar system, a lidar system, optics (20, 22; 102, 104) and a dichroic filter (138). The radar system is configured to project quasi-optical radiation to the cloud (12) and receive reflected quasi-optical radiation from the cloud (12). The lidar system is configured to project optical radiation to the cloud (12) and receive reflected optical radiation from the cloud (12). The optics (20, 22; 102, 104) are configured to direct the quasi-optical radiation and the optical radiation to the cloud (12) and receive the reflected quasi-optical radiation and the reflected optical radiation from the cloud (12). The dichroic filter (138) is configured to direct the quasi-optical radiation from the radar system to the optics (20, 22; 102, 104), direct the optical radiation from the lidar system to the optics (20, 22; 102, 104), direct the reflected quasi-optical radiation from the optics (20, 22; 102, 104) to the radar system and direct the reflected optical radiation from the optics (20, 22; 102, 104) to the lidar system.

    Abstract: A system for detecting contamination of a window 18 of an optical system includes a polarizing beamsplitter 14, a quarter waveplate 16, a photodetector 12, and a processor 24. The polarizing beamsplitter is configured to receive a laser beam having a first polarization and reflect the laser beam having the first polarization to the window. The photodetector is configured to sense a magnitude of reflections of the laser beam from the window having a second polarization, wherein the polarizing beamsplitter passes the reflections of the laser beam from the window having the second polarization to the photodetector. The processor is configured to determine a contamination level of the window based upon the magnitude of the reflections of the laser beam from the window.
