I assume you are talking of HFSS since you said Optimetrics, but perhaps other software uses that name.

If you have HFSS version 13 or 14, you can get a free antenna design kit, which can be downloaded from the Ansys web site. With that, there is the facility to create several patch antennas

1. Rectangular probe fed
2. Rectangular edge fed
3. Rectangular inset fed
4. Elliptical probe fed
5. Elliptical edge fed
6. Elliptical inset fed

All are parameterised, so when HFSS starts, it will use variable names for things like the length, width, dielectirc etc. All you need to do then is to add the parametric. You would need to add the Optimetics yourself, but that will give you a starting point.

If you are really stuck, tell me what sort of patch antenna you want, what frequency, and I'll create you one with the antenna design kit. But you would be better just doing it yourself.
