Abstract
A system which prevents the formation of ice on the external surfaces of aircraft structures by heating impinging atmospheric supercooled water droplets to above the freezing point by the transmission of microwave electromagnetic energy to the droplets which if unheated would freeze upon impact and adhere to the aircraft structures. The frequency of the microwave electromagnetic energy is such that it is strongly absorbed by the liquid water droplets but weakly absorbed by ambient air, frozen water or the aircraft structures, thus resulting in very efficient heating of the supercooled water droplets.
