22//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
23//
24// This class contains the procedures simulation ADC signal for the
25// Forward Multiplicity detector : Hits->Digits and Hits->SDigits
26//
27// Digits consists of
28// - Detector #
29// - Ring ID
30// - Sector #
31// - Strip #
32// - ADC count in this channel
33//
34// Digits consists of
35// - Detector #
36// - Ring ID
37// - Sector #
38// - Strip #
39// - Total energy deposited in the strip
40// - ADC count in this channel
41//
42// As the Digits and SDigits have so much in common, the classes
43// AliFMDDigitizer and AliFMDSDigitizer are implemented via a base
44// class AliFMDBaseDigitizer.

55// +-----------------+ +------------------+
56//
57// These classes has several paramters:
58//
59// fPedestal
60// fPedestalWidth
61// (Only AliFMDDigitizer)
62// Mean and width of the pedestal. The pedestal is simulated
63// by a Guassian, but derived classes my override MakePedestal
64// to simulate it differently (or pick it up from a database).
65//
66// fVA1MipRange
67// The dymamic MIP range of the VA1_ALICE pre-amplifier chip
68//
69// fAltroChannelSize
70// The largest number plus one that can be stored in one
71// channel in one time step in the ALTRO ADC chip.
72//
73// fSampleRate
74// How many times the ALTRO ADC chip samples the VA1_ALICE
75// pre-amplifier signal. The VA1_ALICE chip is read-out at
76// 10MHz, while it's possible to drive the ALTRO chip at
77// 25MHz. That means, that the ALTRO chip can have time to
78// sample each VA1_ALICE signal up to 2 times. Although it's
79// not certain this feature will be used in the production,
80// we'd like have the option, and so it should be reflected in
81// the code.
82//
83//
84// The shaping function of the VA1_ALICE is generally given by
85//
86// f(x) = A(1 - exp(-Bx))
87//
88// where A is the total charge collected in the pre-amp., and B is a
89// paramter that depends on the shaping time of the VA1_ALICE circut.
90//
91// When simulating the shaping function of the VA1_ALICe
92// pre-amp. chip, we have to take into account, that the shaping
93// function depends on the previous value of read from the pre-amp.
94//
95// That results in the following algorithm:
96//
97// last = 0;
98// FOR charge IN pre-amp. charge train DO
99// IF last < charge THEN
100// f(t) = (charge - last) * (1 - exp(-B * t)) + last
101// ELSE
102// f(t) = (last - charge) * exp(-B * t) + charge)
103// ENDIF
104// FOR i IN # samples DO
105// adc_i = f(i / (# samples))
106// DONE
107// last = charge
108// DONE
109//
110// Here,
111//
112// pre-amp. charge train
113// is a series of 128 charges read from the VA1_ALICE chip
114//
115// # samples
116// is the number of times the ALTRO ADC samples each of the 128
117// charges from the pre-amp.
118//
119// Where Q is the total charge collected by the VA1_ALICE
120// pre-amplifier. Q is then given by
121//
122// E S
123// Q = - -
124// e R
125//
126// where E is the total energy deposited in a silicon strip, R is the
127// dynamic range of the VA1_ALICE pre-amp (fVA1MipRange), e is the
128// energy deposited by a single MIP, and S ALTRO channel size in each
129// time step (fAltroChannelSize).
130//
131// The energy deposited per MIP is given by
132//
133// e = M * rho * w
134//
135// where M is the universal number 1.664, rho is the density of
136// silicon, and w is the depth of the silicon sensor.
137//
138// The final ADC count is given by
139//
140// C' = C + P
141//
142// where P is the (randomized) pedestal (see MakePedestal)
143//
144// This class uses the class template AliFMDMap<Type> to make an
145// internal cache of the energy deposted of the hits. The class
146// template is instantasized as
147//
148// typedef AliFMDMap<std::pair<Float_t, UShort_t> > AliFMDEdepMap;
149//
150// The first member of the values is the summed energy deposition in a
151// given strip, while the second member of the values is the number of
152// hits in a given strip. Using the second member, it's possible to
153// do some checks on just how many times a strip got hit, and what
154// kind of error we get in our reconstructed hits. Note, that this
155// information is currently not written to the digits tree. I think a
156// QA (Quality Assurance) digit tree is better suited for that task.
157// However, the information is there to be used in the future.
