Abstract

Optical systems are provided. In an embodiment, the optical system includes a first anamorphic optic having a first focal length and a first focal line, where the first focal line is parallel to a cross track direction. A second anamorphic optic has a second focal length and a second focal line, where the second focal length is different than the first first focal length. The second anamorphic optic is positioned such that the first focal line and the second focal line are in about the same location. The first and second anamorphic optics are aligned along an optical signal path, and are configured to provide afocal magnification to a signal beam along an along track direction to produce a magnified beam. A line scan imager includes an objective lens and a linear detector, and the second anamorphic optic is configured to direct the magnified beam at the objective lens.
