The complex LMS adaptive algorithm developed by Widrow
[Ref. 1] is used in the frequency domain to estimate the
azimuth and elevation angles of a plane wave incident upon
a planar array. The complex LMS algorithm is applied to two
cases. The first case is a passive detection problem. The
second case is a pulse communication problem. In both
cases, complex weights are determined using the complex LMS
algorithm which cophase all of the output electrical signals
from -the planar array. Three versions of the complex LMS
algorithm are studied and their performances are compared.
