Abstract
A system includes a signal transmitter configured to emit a signal pulse and a signal receiver configured to receive one or more reflected pulses of the emitted signal pulse, wherein the signal receiver includes a plurality of comparators configured to sample the one or more reflected pulses at different intensity threshold levels to determine a group of slices representative of the received one or more reflected pulses, wherein each slice of at least a portion of the group of slices identifies a corresponding timing of when at least a portion of the received one or more reflected pulses met a corresponding intensity threshold level. The system further includes one or more processors configured to use the determined slices to reconstruct the one or more reflected pulses.
