SLHC Optoelectronics Working Group News from CMS SLHC upgrades steering group Proposal for a different WG operating mode How about Alice and LHCb? francois.vasey@cern.ch
News from CMS SLHC upgrades steering group • Upgrade plan in two phases • By 2012: new triggering layers in pixel tracker • By 2016: full tracker upgrade • Expression of Interest by end06 • A brief document outlining the case for upgrade, scope of work and timescales. To prepare/warn Funding agencies. • Letter of Intent by mid07 • A larger document with more complete physics case. Includes organization and rough costing. Submitted to LHCC to allow funding agencies to “release” funding • Common projects • Optoelectronics francois.vasey@cern.ch
Proposal for a different operating mode • Move from reporting to collaborating mode • Identify the areas of expertise of collaborators • Collaborate in smaller subgroups, organize topical meetings. • Report at bi-yearly plenary meetings • Prepare common R&D proposals francois.vasey@cern.ch
Optoelectronics WG francois.vasey@cern.ch
Work Package Structure • 1. Physical layer • 1.1 Interface to Front End (hybrids, ...) • 1.2 Data collection/distribution (electrical, optical, wireless....) • 1.3 Data transport (opto components, ser/des, co/dec, drivers/receivers, optohybrids & packages, ...) • 1.4 Interface to Back End (FPGAs, Backplanes, ...) • 2. System layer • 2.1 Design and Simulation (Architectures, Protocols, Error Correction, Data Compression, Synchronous/Asynchronous ...) • 2.2 Demonstrator (Prototypes, Feasibility studies, 4G, 10G, PON) • 2.3 Test (Test systems, protocols, platforms, System tests, Beam tests) • 2.4 Interface to DAQ network (Protocols, modes of operation, ...) • 3. Environment • Radiation Hardness (total dose, SEU,…) • Reliability francois.vasey@cern.ch
Proposed way forward • By Aug 31st, Institutes express their interest to participate to WPa.b and indicate their available resources • On Sep 27th (LECC06 Valencia), the work-packages which have reached critical mass and group two or more institutes can be launched • ATLAS and CMS Funding requests for optoelectronics R&D are commonly reviewed by WG members who sit in CMS or ATLAS SLHC review committees. francois.vasey@cern.ch
ALICE and LHCb? • Opportunity to represent the entire LHC community • Risk to collapse under our own weight. francois.vasey@cern.ch
