Abstract
As one of the key photonic devices, optical fiber grating has been playing an important role in the fiber communications and remote sensing. In research, development, and application of fiber gratings, it is necessary to apply a range of measurement techniques for characterization and evaluation. This chapter introduces the major types of optical fiber gratings and describes related characterization and measurement techniques. Firstly, the history of fiber grating is briefly reviewed and different types of fiber gratings are introduced. Then the theoretical definitions and experimental measurements of typical parameters for fiber gratings have been described in details.
