Abstract
Sampled fiber Bragg gratings are of great interest for their applications in WDM systems such as multichannel filtering, 1 multichannel optical add/drop multiplexing2 and multichannel dispersion compensation.3 Indeed, since a sampled grating is a regularly spatial comb distribution of identical sampling gratings over a total length Lg, its resultant spectrum consists, using the Fourier theory for weak gratings, of a comb of peaks which channel separation is inversely proportional to the period of the spatial distribution.4
