By using the fixed point theorem for mixed monotone operator in a normal cone, we prove that the equation with 0<p,q<1 always has the unique positive definite solution. Two different iterative methods are given, including the basic fixed point iterative method and the multi-step stationary iterative method. Numerical examples show that the iterative methods are feasible and effective. %K Nonlinear Matrix Equation %K Positive Definite Solution %K Iterative Method %K Normal Cone %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=79339
