Abstract
The accretion of ice layers on wings and control surfaces modifies the shape of the aircraft and, consequently, alters performance and controllability of the vehicle. In this paper we propose an Unknown Input Observers framework to design icing diagnosis filters. A case-study is provided as support and validation of theoretical results.
