RPC for the Small Wheel upgrade
• Baseline: Hybrid RPC-sMDT detector– Integration of mechanical structure – Sharing of LV and Readout
• RPC is designed to provide:– 1 mrad angular resolution on bending
coordinate– 1 mm resolution second coordinate– Sub ns timing and TOF capability– Full coverage and tracking efficiency > 97%

30-40 cm
θ
• The trigger function is provided by an electronic chain measuring the azimuth angle from digital local coordinates. – The zero suppression is applied on
chamber– The angle calculation requires about
50 ns on top of the signal delivery time to USA15
Proposal Strategy and key points • Rate capability enhancement
– New FE electronics allowing a working point with 1/10 of charge delivered in the gas with respect to ATLAS standard achieved
– New detector layout 1+1 mm gap allows to at least halve the total charge delivered for a given signal, improving also the prompt charge distribution and the timing prototype under test 2011 H8 campaign.
• Timing– 1+1 mm gap 0.5 ns sigma for each gas gap
• Trigger based on fast precision measurement (~0.3 mm on a single gap) including zero suppression
• Uncorrelated background pileup suppression strict space-time coincidence – 2 ns width coincidence, correction for signal propagation delay on strips is not needed– Virtual PAD of ~30x1 cm^2– 2/3 majority per chamber (2 chambers per station)
• Integration with sMDT chamber– Sharing mechanics due low profile chamber (3.5 cm)– Sharing LV services and readout for the second coordinate– Provide timing and hit position for the tube
Detector proposal outline • Detector element baseline: 1+1 mm gap
– average total charge delivered 0.5 pC per count– Time resolution of about 0.5 ns (e.g. almost gaussian time distribution)– Full efficiency at 10 kHz/cm^2– Intrinsic space resolution better than 0.3 mm– Resistive plate baseline: ATLAS standard laminate
• Chamber baseline: RPC Triplets– Triplets will be used for redundancy in a 2/3 majority
• Readout Baseline: Eta + Phi on the single gap– Eta segmented in 2 mm pitch strips read out by Maximum Selector.
Optionally the average of each 8 strips can be read by the MDT mezzanine spare channels.
– Phi segmented in ~1 cm strips (variable with the radius), read out by the spare Mezzanine channels.
Trigger proposal outline
• Coincidence type baseline: – (2/3maj AND 2/3maj )Eta
• Space time coincidence– DEta expected to be a ~1 cm. To be calculated by the MC taking
in to account multiple scattering and maximum deflection on the bending coordinate
– Dphi defined by the coincidence width x signal propagation speed
– Time coincidence baseline ~2 ns with 1+1 mm gap (no propagation time correction is needed see after)
– Trigger occupancy baseline estimated in about 44 Hz per station. Can be easily improved

Fast precision trigger with ( RPC) for ATLAS SW
• Fast precision trigger required :– Precision spatial information from the front-end
electronics of RPC ( 2mm strip pitch ~0.3 mm resolution)
– Fast trigger decision ( 50 ns + cable length latency)
– High rate uncorrelated background rejection
Overall CS=2 result No systematic correction

RPC based fast trigger scheme for the SW• The New RPC Front End allowed a new
working mode with a factor 10 less of charge per count 10 KHz/cm^2 as tested
• Tracking trigger: a new type of – low-cost – low-consumption – Fast– compact
electronic readout circuit allows fast precision tracking for local trigger generation on the Eta.
• It works finding the maximum of the RPC charge distribution

Amp and MaximumSelector
Maximum selector• N strips are processed at the same
time (N can vary reasonably in the range of ~10)
• The Maximum selector amplifies the inputs and outputs a negative signal only in correspondence of the strip above a settable fractional threshold, normalized to the average charge provided
• The threshold is chosen to have one or two strips firing (cluster size 1 or 2)
• The decoder transforms the simple digital pattern in to a number representing the hit coordinate on the chamber
• The processing time of (7-10 ns) is highlighted in figure
