ABSTRACT:
A heated antenna system includes an antenna having a reflecting surface and a heater associated with the reflecting surface. The heater has a current and at least one voltage. An electrical control system is electrically coupled to the heater of the antenna. The electrical control system is configured for monitoring at least one of the current and the at least one voltage of the heater and issuing a status signal indicative of a status of the heater. A conductor is configured for simultaneously carrying electrical energy to the electrical control system and carrying data and electrical energy to the antenna. The electrical energy provides the current and the at least one voltage to thereby power the heater.
