Abstract :
This paper relates a short history of adaptive arrays, starting with Paul Howells´ invention of the side-lobe canceller for radar and communications. An attempt is made in a small way to historically relate this adaptive array development with the sonar problem, the adaptive equalizer, adaptive pattern recognition, etc. Finally some technical highlights of adaptive array theory are presented.
