contents A tandem deep neural network approach is presented for the inverse design of reactively loaded metasurfaces with prescribed far-field radiation characteristics. The proposed approach integrates a deep neural network (DNN) with a physics-based microwave network forward solver. The DNN maps target far-field patterns to distributions of reactive loads across the metasurface unit cells. The predicted distribution of reactive loads is evaluated by the forward solver to compute the resulting radiation pattern and guide the learning process through a cosine-similarity loss function. The forward solver enables a fast evaluation of the metasurface's electromagnetic response, significantly reducing the computational cost required for training. The proposed approach is applied to a metasurface with aperture-coupled unit cells loaded with reactances. Several design examples are presented to demonstrate the accurate synthesis of shaped and steered radiation patterns. Full-wave electromagnetic simulations are performed to validate the accuracy of the designed beamforming metasurfaces.
