Start Time of Each Block
Assuming that the absolute time of a Point Cloud Data Packet is t0, the start time of each block (the time when the first firing starts) can be
calculated.

Laser Firing Time of Each Channel
In each round of firing, the firing sequence is from Channel 1 to Channel 32.
Assuming that the start time of Block 6 is t6, the laser firing time of Channel i is
t6 + (1.512 * i + 0.28), i∈{1, 2, ..., 32}.
