1. A method for demodulating ultrasound data, the method comprising:

  • receiving ultrasound data from a plurality of channels of an ultrasound probe in an ultrasound system;

    reducing a sample rate of the received ultrasound data for the plurality of channels using digital demodulation, wherein a demodulation frequency for at least one of the plurality of channels is different than a demodulation frequency for at least one other of the plurality of channels;

    communicating the reduced sample rate ultrasound data to a processor of the ultrasound system; and

    performing processing of the reduced sample rate ultrasound data using the processor, wherein the processing includes beamforming.
