In this work we propose a new type of symmetrical surface relief diffractive grating for waveguide-based Augmented Reality (AR) near-eye display system with a wide field of view (FOV). We demonstrate that by using a dual mode symmetrical in-coupling system and pupil angular tiling, we can extend the overall horizontal FOV. Our grating coupler is optimized for the second diffraction orders. The proposed concept is validated numerically via full-wave electromagnetic analysis of a 1D diffraction grating. Measurement of diffraction efficiency of the micro-fabricated prototype has demonstrated good agreement with the results of numerical simulations for the design wavelength.

To realize the objectives of Integrated Sensing and
Communication (ISAC) in 6G, there is a need to introduce
new functionalities in 6G core (6GC) architecture that are
dynamic and resource-efficient. In ISAC, sensing signals are used by a Sensing Receiver (SRx) to measure and report Sensing Data Points (SDPs) to the network. However, a direct approach involving …
