Notice that HIS OWN REFERENCE makes it clear that the ground plane is necessary:
“The ground plane must have comparatively very large dimensions than the patch.”

“The most common version of printed antenna is microstrip antenna, which consists of a metallic patch above a ground plane.“
Figure 1 shows a strip antenna with the larger patch than the lead and the ground plane.
