Description
LHC is expected to increase its luminosity above the original nominal value of 1034 cm−2s−1, eventually achieving an order of magnitude increase after major upgrades will be performed after 2020. This configuration of the machine is known as High Luminosity-LHC (HL-LHC).
CMS needs a completely new tracking system to maintain adequate performance in the HL-LHC environment and to provide tracking information for the Level-1 trigger decision.
The most relevant requirements and constraints are summarized, along with highlights from some of the R&D activities.
