Description
The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is expected to deliver luminosities of $5\times10ˆ{34} ~\mathrm{cm}ˆ2/\mathrm{s}$, with an average of about 140 overlapping proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing. These extreme pileup conditions place stringent requirements on the trigger system to be able to cope with the resulting event rates. A key component of the CMS upgrade for HL-LHC is a track trigger system which would identify tracks with transverse momentum above 2 GeV already at the first-level trigger. This talk presents a proposal for implementing the L1 tracking using tracklets for seeding.
Results from a recently completed demonstrator project will be presented, which shows good performance and ability to reconstruct tracks within $4\mu s$ of the collision, and projections for ultimate system performance.
