ABSTRACT

Metalenses are instruments that manipulate waves and have exhibited remarkable capabilities to date. However, an important hurdle arises due to the severe hampering of the angular response originating from coma and field curvature aberrations, which result in a loss of focusing ability. Herein, we provide a blueprint by introducing the notion of a wide field-of-hearing (FOH) metalens, designed particularly for capturing and focusing sound with decreased aberrations. Employing an aberration-free planar-thin metalens that leverages perfect acoustic symmetry conversion, we experimentally realize a robust wide FOH capability of approximately 140∘ in angular range. Moreover, our metalens features a relatively short focal length, enabling compact implementation by reducing the aperture-to-hearing plane distance. This is beneficial for space-efficient source-tracking sound sensing. Our strategy can be used across various platforms, potentially including energy harvesting, monitoring, imaging, and communication in auditory, ultrasonic, and submerged environments.

ABSTRACT

A recent paper [M. Stojanovic J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 117, 1173-1185 (2005)] presented theoretical performance bounds of time reversal communications. In this letter, the performance of time reversal communications is evaluated using at-sea experimental data and compared to the theory for two different approaches; (1) time reversal alone and (2) time reversal combined with channel equalization. It is found that approach (1) shows a good agreement between theory and data. On the other hand, approach (2) indicates that the data is about 3-5 dB below the theory which assumes perfect knowledge of the channel, an infinite number of taps to remove the intersymbol interference, and no need for phase tracking. Taking these into consideration, the theoretical performance can provide a useful upper bound for predicting performance of time reversal communications.
