Abstract :
In this letter, we analyze and develop the required basis for a precise grating design in a scheme based on two oppositely chirped fiber Bragg gratings, and apply it in several examples which are numerically simulated. We obtain the interesting result that the broader bandwidth of the reshaped pulse, the shorter gratings required
