Abstract

A channel multiplexing method for reading array detector signals includes: dividing array detectors into M groups, at least two detectors being in each group; array coding the read channel to read M row signals and N column signals, which means when a signal is outputted at the detector in row a, column b, the signals of row a and column b are outputted correspondingly; connecting the readout signals of-the row and the column to different positions of two transmission lines respectively; determining the source row number and column number of the signal on the basis of the time difference between the time of signal reaching two ends of the transmission line, and marking the source detector from which the signal is generated on the basis of two time differences of the row signal and the column signal.
