It looks kinda like a patch, but not quite

Hi folks,

I ran across this on the Web...  It's hard to tell from the picture, but
it 
seems to be a different kind of antenna.  Not a patch, not a helix.  By
the 
specs, a pretty good emulation of an isotropic radiator (no gain, omni 
directional).

Does anyone know how they work, or how they might perform over a ground 
plane as a feed for a dish?  They would seem to be very easy to make...

1" square of tin and a pair of scissors.
