Popis: In this work, an inverse design method for multiinput multi-output (MIMO) metastructured devices is developed. Large-scale inverse design problems are difficult to solve directly and often require heuristic methods or design optimization to find a solution. Inherent errors introduced by heuristic methods makes design optimization a more promising route to the realization of high performance devices. Here, a fast frequency domain solver for grids of Y-parameter matrices is developed. The solver is used together with an adjoint-based optimization routine to solve inverse metastructured design problems. The design procedure is demonstrated through the realization of a planar beamforming network for a multi-beam antenna.
