Abstract
Mutual coupling between antenna array elements will significantly degrade the performance of the array signal processing methods. Due to the Toeplitz structure of mutual coupling matrix (MCM), there exist some mutual coupling calibration algorithms for the uniform linear array (ULA) or uniform circular array (UCA). But few methods for other arrays. In this letter, we derive a new transformation formula for the MCM of the 7-elements hexagonal array (HA-7). Further, we extend two mutual coupling auto-calibration methods from UCA to HA by the transformation formula. Simulation results demonstrate the validity of the proposed two methods.
