A diffractive optics design method based on a phase retrieval algorithm and carrier grating coding is modified to enable designing of photonic bandgap reflectances. Discrete and continuous signals are designed for a fiber grating to demonstrate the capability of the approach. The method is proved a versatile tool for synthesizing reflectance spectra of periodic structures.
