Abstract :
We present two real-time fiber position monitoring methods for sequential fiber-Bragg-grating UV-writing process. Before writing every grating section, the just-exposed grating section or the reference fiber grating is probed by an interferometric side-diffraction method to measure the grating phase as position reference
