Phase reconstruction from reflectivity in uniform fiber Bragg gratings

Opt Lett. 1997 Jan 15;22(2):93-5. doi: 10.1364/ol.22.000093.

Abstract

We propose a method for phase, time-delay, and impulse-response reconstruction from spectral power reflectance or reflectivity and apply it to uniform fiber Bragg gratings. This method is based on causality conditions and uses Hilbert and Wiener-Lee transforms. Results show a good agreement between exact and reconstructed functions.
