Claim 33:
34. The method of claim 20, wherein the at least one optical device is a first optical device and a second optical device, the at least one optical transducer is a first optical transducer and a second optical transducer, the at least one electronic device is a first read-out-integrated-circuit (ROIC) and a second ROIC, and further comprising:
a demultiplexer configured to receive the optical signal and segment the optical signal into a first segment and a second segment, wherein the second segment does not contain any portion of the optical segment contained in the first segment; and
a multiplexer;
wherein the first optical device is configured to receive the first segment,
wherein the first optical transducer is configured to receive the first segment from the first optical device and convert the first segment to a first electrical signal,
wherein the first ROIC is configured to receive the first electrical signal and process the first electrical signal,
wherein the second optical device is configured to receive the second segment,
wherein the second optical transducer is configured to receive the second segment from the second optical device and convert the second segment to a second electrical signal,
wherein the second ROIC is configured to receive the second electrical signal and process the second electrical signal, and
wherein the multiplexer is configured to receive the processed first electrical signal and the processed second electrical signal, and output a combination of the processed first electrical signal and the processed second electrical signal.
