Beam‐Steering Metadevices for Intelligent Optical Wireless‐Broadcasting Communications

High‐performance beam‐steering devices play a crucial role for optical wireless communication (OWC), which can meet the demand for increasing number of wireless mobile devices and emerging high‐speed multimedia applications. Conventional beam‐steering optical components like spatial light modulator and digital micromirror device are limited to realize a small steering angle (typ. several degrees), thus dramatically limits the spatial scope of OWC. Herein, a beam‐steering metadevice utilizing an ultracompact metasurface assisted with a spatial light modulator is presented, which can significantly increase the beam‐steering angle without at the cost of complicated optical setup like conventionally used angle magnifier. Based on the actively tunable beam‐steering metadevice, an intelligent bidirectional optical broadcasting communication system is designed and experimentally demonstrated, which exhibits nine broadcasting areas covering a large field‐of‐view of 20° × 20°, with user‐defined dynamic beam‐steering ability in each area, and each user has a data rate of 10 Gbps for both upstream and downstream transmission. The proposed metadevices can meet the demand of intelligent optical wireless communication which requires both high‐performance and low‐cost for practical purpose, under currently available technical architectures.
