This study presents an overlapped subarray decomposition method to effectively simulate electrically large planar array of antennas, where the extracted subarrays can be simulated in parallel by commercial codes in a distributed fashion. This method is relatively simple and allows one to obtain a reasonable result within the acceptable level of accuracy for the engineering purpose. A plug‐in code can be built up by using a commercial code as a computational engine. The characteristics of this method are investigated by considering the simulation of a dipole antenna array via the application of the method of moments (MoM). It is also validated by performing a realistic design of microstrip patch antennas. The comparisons with measurement results are performed and summarised.
