The invention provides a large-angle holographic display system based on effective area expansion of a spatial light modulator. The system includes a laser device, a filter, a solid lens, a beam splitter, an SLM 1, an SLM 2 and a diaphragm, wherein the laser device, the filter and the solid lens are utilized to create uniform parallel beams, the beam splitter is located in the exit direction of the parallel beams and is used for splitting the beams into two beams that are perpendicular to each other, the two SLMs are in the same model and placed perpendicular to each other, the resolution of the SLM is M, when the parallel light illuminates the two SLMs separately, the zero-order light can be seamlessly spliced together through the beam splitter, the diaphragm is utilized to eliminate high-order diffracted light in a reconstructed object, in order to extend the effective area of the SLM, the two SLMs and the beam splitter are equivalently regarded as a 2M SLM which is recorded as the 2M SLM, when a hologram of an object is loaded on the 2M SLM, the reconstructed object with a large viewing angle can be viewed.
