In this study, a multi-channel beam scanning of a coherent LiDAR (light detection and ranging) system was developed using WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) to overcome the limitations of the conventional single-beam approach, particularly its lower imaging speed. The experimental setup involved adding a WDM module to a Mach-Zehnder-type fiber-based interferometer. The original beam was divided into beams with different center wavelengths using WDM. These beams are directed at the target with a 1D Galvo scanner to build the x-y image. Interference signals between sample and reference lights were analyzed by each individual channel, enabling distance calculations through a fast Fourier transform. The proposed system with multi-channel beam scanning successfully improved scanning speed and obtained 3D images.
