Abstract :
The objective of this work is to model, taking into account the stochastic nature of the pulses, the generation, acquisition and processing of these, generating simulated pulses with a high level of fidelity. The pulse are used to quantify the performance in resolution in time and energy, as well as evaluate all parameters involved in the measurement chain.
