Abstract :
A smart solution concerning the front end and the readout of a Silicon Drift Chamber is proposed. Online data processing will produce a significant decrease in the amount of transmitted data without also losing essential information. A processor that exploits fuzzy logic plays a central role. It is capable of computing, with reasonable precision, the position of the tracks and the total charge released inside the detector
