Summary: 
We will present the theoretical analysis of and experimental measurements on the transmission characteristics of multi-channel long period fiber gratings in terms of the physical parameters like the separation distance, grating length and number of gratings. These parameters can be used to control the spectral channel spacing, number of channels, loss peak depth, and channel bandwidth of multi-channel long period fiber gratings.
