• Ideal array responses are often desirable to a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Unfortunately, it may not be guaranteed in practice as the mutual coupling (MC) effects always exist. Current works concerning MC in the MIMO system only account for the uniform array geometry scenario. In this paper, we generalize the issue of angle estimation and MC self-calibration in a bistatic MIMO system in the case of arbitrary sensor geometry. The MC effects corresponding to the transmit array and the receive array are modeled by two MC matrices with several distinct entities. Angle estimation is then recast to a linear constrained quadratic problem. Inspired by the MC transformation property, a multiple signal classification- (MUSIC-) like strategy is proposed, which can estimate the direction-of-departure (DOD) and direction-of-arrival (DOA) via two individual spectrum searches. Thereafter, the MC coefficients are obtained by exploiting the orthogonality between the signal subspace and the noise subspace. The proposed method is suitable for arbitrary sensor geometry. Detailed analyses with respect to computational complexity, identifiability, and Cramer-Rao bounds (CRBs) are provided. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
