Tensor, matrix and quaternion formulations of Dirac-K\"ahler equation for massive and massless fields are considered. The equation matrices obtained are simple linear combinations of matrix elements in the 16-dimensional space. The projection matrix-dyads defining all the 16 independent equation solutions are found. A method of computing the traces of 16-dimensional Petiau-Duffin-Kemmer matrix product is considered. We show that the symmetry group of the Dirac-K\"ahler tensor fields for charged particles is SO(4,2). The conservation currents corresponding this symmetry are constructed. We analyze transformations of the Lorentz group and quaternion fields. Supersymmetry of the Dirac-K\"ahler fields with tensor and spinor parameters is investigated. We show the possibility of constructing a gauge model of interacting Dirac-K\"ahler fields where the gauge group is the noncompact group under consideration.
