1. A composite antenna comprising:
a first antenna element disposed above a ground plane, the first antenna element being operatively coupled to a first signal feed providing a first signal, the first antenna element being configured to radiate the first signal provided by the first signal feed; and
a second antenna element disposed above the first antenna element, the second antenna element being operatively coupled to a second signal feed providing a second signal, the second antenna element being configured to radiate the second signal provided by the second signal feed, the first signal and the second signal being adjusted to set a beamwidth and a directivity of a beam pattern of a combined beam radiated by the composite antenna, the first signal feed and the second signal feed being separate signal feeds.
