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

45// +-----------------+ +------------------+
46// | AliFMDHitDigitizer | | AliFMDSDigitizer |
47// +-----------------+ +------------------+
48//
49// These classes has several paramters:
50//
51// fPedestal
52// fPedestalWidth
53// (Only AliFMDHitDigitizer)
54// Mean and width of the pedestal. The pedestal is simulated
55// by a Guassian, but derived classes my override MakePedestal
56// to simulate it differently (or pick it up from a database).
57//
58// fVA1MipRange
59// The dymamic MIP range of the VA1_ALICE pre-amplifier chip
60//
61// fAltroChannelSize
62// The largest number plus one that can be stored in one
63// channel in one time step in the ALTRO ADC chip.
64//
65// fSampleRate
66// How many times the ALTRO ADC chip samples the VA1_ALICE
67// pre-amplifier signal. The VA1_ALICE chip is read-out at
68// 10MHz, while it's possible to drive the ALTRO chip at
69// 25MHz. That means, that the ALTRO chip can have time to
70// sample each VA1_ALICE signal up to 2 times. Although it's
71// not certain this feature will be used in the production,
72// we'd like have the option, and so it should be reflected in
73// the code.
74//
75// These parameters are fetched from OCDB via the mananger AliFMDParameters.
76//
77// The shaping function of the VA1_ALICE is generally given by
78//
79// f(x) = A(1 - exp(-Bx))
80//
81// where A is the total charge collected in the pre-amp., and B is a
82// paramter that depends on the shaping time of the VA1_ALICE circut.
83//
84// When simulating the shaping function of the VA1_ALICe
85// pre-amp. chip, we have to take into account, that the shaping
86// function depends on the previous value of read from the pre-amp.
87//
88// That results in the following algorithm:
89//
90// last = 0;
91// FOR charge IN pre-amp. charge train DO
92// IF last < charge THEN
93// f(t) = (charge - last) * (1 - exp(-B * t)) + last
94// ELSE
95// f(t) = (last - charge) * exp(-B * t) + charge)
96// ENDIF
97// FOR i IN # samples DO
98// adc_i = f(i / (# samples))
99// DONE
100// last = charge
101// DONE
102//
103// Here,
104//
105// pre-amp. charge train
106// is a series of 128 charges read from the VA1_ALICE chip
107//
108// # samples
109// is the number of times the ALTRO ADC samples each of the 128
110// charges from the pre-amp.
111//
112// Where Q is the total charge collected by the VA1_ALICE
113// pre-amplifier. Q is then given by
114//
115// E S
116// Q = - -
117// e R
118//
119// where E is the total energy deposited in a silicon strip, R is the
120// dynamic range of the VA1_ALICE pre-amp (fVA1MipRange), e is the
121// energy deposited by a single MIP, and S ALTRO channel size in each
122// time step (fAltroChannelSize).
123//
124// The energy deposited per MIP is given by
125//
126// e = M * rho * w
127//
128// where M is the universal number 1.664, rho is the density of
129// silicon, and w is the depth of the silicon sensor.
130//
131// The final ADC count is given by
132//
133// C' = C + P
134//
135// where P is the (randomized) pedestal (see MakePedestal)
136//
137// This class uses the class template AliFMDMap<Type> to make an
138// internal cache of the energy deposted of the hits. The class
139// template is instantasized as
140//
141// typedef AliFMDMap<std::pair<Float_t, UShort_t> > AliFMDEdepMap;
142//
143// The first member of the values is the summed energy deposition in a
144// given strip, while the second member of the values is the number of
145// hits in a given strip. Using the second member, it's possible to
146// do some checks on just how many times a strip got hit, and what
147// kind of error we get in our reconstructed hits. Note, that this
148// information is currently not written to the digits tree. I think a
149// QA (Quality Assurance) digit tree is better suited for that task.
150// However, the information is there to be used in the future.
