Run 2 Upgrades to the CMS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger
B. Kreis, J. Berryhill, R. Cavanaugh +61
The CMS Level-1 calorimeter trigger is being upgraded in two stages to maintain performance as the LHC increases pile-up and instantaneous luminosity in its second run. In the firs…
Potential Upgrade of the CMS Tracker Analog Readout Optical Links Using Bandwidth Efficient Digital Modulation
Stefanos Dris, Costas Foudas, Karl Gill +4
The potential application of advanced digital communication schemes in a future upgrade of the CMS Tracker readout optical links is currently being investigated at CERN. We show ex…
The CMS Level-1 Trigger at LHC and Super-LHC
C. Foudas
The Level-1 trigger of the CMS experiment at CERN has been designed to select proton-proton interactions whose final state includes signatures of new physics in the form of high tr…
Maximizing the Bandwidth Efficiency of the CMS Tracker Analog Optical Links
Stefanos Dris, Markus Axer, Costas Foudas +4
The feasibility of achieving faster data transmission using advanced digital modulation techniques over the current CMS Tracker analog optical link is explored. The spectral effici…
The CMS Tracker Readout Front End Driver
C. Foudas, R. Bainbridge, D. Ballard +21
The Front End Driver, FED, is a 9U 400mm VME64x card designed for reading out the Compact Muon Solenoid, CMS, silicon tracker signals transmitted by the APV25 analogue pipeline App…
A Pixel Detector for Level-1 Triggering at SLHC
J. Jones, G. Hall, C. Foudas +1
We report on preliminary design studies of a pixel detector for CMS at the Super-LHC. The goal of these studies was to investigate the possibility of designing an inner tracker pix…
