Claim 18:
19. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing machine readable instructions that are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving optical data associated with a plurality of simultaneous channel groups, wherein each of the simultaneous channel groups includes data collected from sensing one or more beams of light that has interacted with a sample of a fluid collected downhole in a wellbore, each of the one or more beams of light having been passed through a respective light filter configured to filter one or more wavelengths of light from the beam of light;
for each of the plurality of simultaneous channel groups, evaluating the optical data associated with the simultaneous channel group to determine that the data for that simultaneous channel group is either effective or ineffective in providing information regarding the sample of the fluid;
for any simultaneous channel group determined to be ineffective in providing information regarding the sample of the fluid, removing the optical data associated with that particular simultaneous channel group from a data set of the optical data; and
performing an analysis of the data set including only optical data associated with any of the simultaneous channel groups determined to be effective in providing information regarding the sample of the fluid to determine one or more properties associated with the sample of the fluid.
