Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems and methods for providing flexible multipulse strategies. In specific embodiments, a plurality of multipulse location registers are dedicated to storing multipulse location information. Each of a plurality of different mark-lengths that can result in at least one multipulse is mapped to one or more bit location within the multipulse location registers, such that a unique multipulse execution strategy can be defined for each of the plurality of different mark-lengths. Each bit location within the multipulse location registers can contain a first type of bit or a second type of bit. The first type of bit is used to indicate where to execute a multipulse, and the second type of bit is used to indicate where to not execute a multipulse. This abstract is not intended to be a complete description of the various embodiments of the present invention.
