Abstract (EN): Long-period gratings is class of fiber gratings, in which the period of the refractive index modulation is such that it satisfies a phase matching condition between the fundamental core mode and forward propagating cladding modes of an optical fiber. Many applications in optical communications and optical fiber sensing have been reported along the last years. In this work we present a simulation tool for determining LPG transmission spectrum and the coupling curve. The simulation tool uses MatLab code. The software produces also estimations of the resonant wavelength displacement due to changes in external parameters like temperature or external refractive index. A simple comparison between the simulation and the experimental result show that exist a good agreement with results obtain.
