A light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system may include a laser configured to output a beam, an amplifier and a plurality of splitters. The amplifier may generate, based on the beam, a plurality of amplified optical signals that are respectively associated with a plurality of phases. The plurality of splitters, coupled between the amplifier and a plurality of outputs, may receive the plurality of amplified optical signals, generate, at a first point of time, a first combined optical signal of the plurality of amplified optical signals at a first output of the plurality of outputs with no optical signal at remaining outputs of the plurality of outputs, and generate, at a second point of time, a second combined optical signal of the plurality of amplified optical signals at a second output of the plurality of outputs with no optical signal at remaining outputs of the plurality of outputs.
