Traditional normalization\u0000methods may be insufficient for assessing these advanced array topologies,\u0000potentially resulting in misleading or inaccurate evaluations. In this study,\u0000we propose electromagnetic normalization approaches for the channel matrix that\u0000accommodate arbitrary array topologies, drawing on the array gains from\u0000analytical, physical, and full-wave methods. Additionally, we introduce a\u0000normalization method for near-field MIMO channels based on a rigorous dyadic\u0000Green's function approach, which accounts for potential losses of gain at near\u0000field. Finally, we perform capacity analyses under quasi-static, ergodic, and\u0000near-field conditions, through adopting the proposed normalization techniques.\u0000Our findings indicate that channel matrix normalization should reflect the\u0000realized gains of the antenna array in target directions.
