1. An antenna, comprising:
a non-square rectangular arrangement of substrate panels, including a first pair of substrate panels having a height, a length, and a thickness, the first pair of substrate panels disposed in a parallel, spaced apart relationship to form a first pair of opposing vertical walls of the non-square rectangular arrangement, wherein a conductor is disposed on an external surface of each substrate panel of the first pair of substrate panels, each conductor having a physical length that extends along the length of the respective substrate panel such that the conductor disposed on the external surface of a respective substrate panel has a same, first electrical length;
a second pair of substrate panels having physical dimensions different from the first pair of substrate panels, the second pair of substrate panels disposed in a parallel, spaced apart relationship to form a second pair of opposing vertical walls of the non-square rectangular arrangement, wherein a conductor is disposed on an external surface of each substrate panel of the second pair of substrate panels, wherein the conductors disposed on the second pair of substrate panels are arranged to have substantially the same, first electrical length as each of the conductors disposed on the first pair of substrate panels.
