Making the ground plane larger also increases the gain, but
as the ground plane size increases, diffraction near the
edges plays less of a role and increasing the size of an
already large ground plane has very little effect on gain.

Introduction:
The electric field does not stop abruptly near the patch's
edges like it would in a cavity: the field extends beyond the
outer periphery.
These field extensions are known as fringing fields and
cause the patch to radiate.
Some popular analytic modelling techniques for patch
antennas are based on this leaky-cavity concept and the
fundamental mode of a rectangular patch is often denoted
using cavity theory like the TM10 mode.

Feed Types:
The purpose of the inset cut in the patch is to match the impedance
of the feed line to the patch without the need for any additional
matching element.
This is achieved by properly controlling the inset position. Hence
this is an easy feeding scheme, since it provides ease of fabrication
and simplicity in modelling as well as impedance matching.

2- Coaxial Feed:
The main advantage of this type of feeding scheme is that the feed
can be placed at any desired location inside the patch in order to
match with its input impedance.
This feed method is easy to fabricate and has low spurious
radiation.
2- Coaxial Feed:
Since the ground plane separates the patch and the feed line,
spurious radiation is minimized.
Generally, a high dielectric material is used for the bottom substrate
and a thick, low dielectric constant material is used for the top
substrate to optimize radiation from the patch.
