1. A patch antenna comprising:

  • a substrate;

    an electrically conductive patch carried by said substrate and having a planar shape and a feed point defined therein;

    a feed conductor coupled to the feed point of said electrically conductive patch; and

    a plurality of electrically conductive wings directly electrically connected to a periphery of said electrically conductive patch and extending upwardly therefrom and away from said substrate, each of said plurality of electrically conductive wings having a triangular shape and configured to bend along the periphery of said electrically conductive patch to adjust a frequency of a respective edge of the electrically conductive patch.
