Abstract
The spectral characteristics of superstructure fiber Bragg gratings are analyzed numerically based on the coupled mode theory, simultaneously taking into account the counterdirectional guided mode coupling, codirectional and counterdirectional claddings mode coupling. The theoretical results were compared with experimental data and very good agreement was obtained.
