Queen A compact, high performance, and novel-shaped ultra-wideband (UWB) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with low mutual coupling is presented in this paper.The proposed antenna consists of two radiating elements with shared ground plane having an area of 50 x 30 mm2.F-shaped stubs are introduced in the shared ground plane of the proposed antenna to produce high isolation between the MIMO antenna elements.The designed MIMO antenna has very low mutual coupling of Quilted Padded Shirts (S21 <; -20 dB), low envelop correlation coefficient (ECC <; 0.

04), high diversity gain (DG > 7.4 dB), high multiplexing efficiency (ηMux > -3.5), and high peak gain over the entire UWB frequencies.The antenna performance is studied in terms of S-Parameters, radiation properties, peak gain, diversity gain, envelop correlation coefficient, and multiplexing efficiency.

A good agreement between the simulated and measured results is observed.
