  1. The on-shore DAQ system for a deep-sea neutrino telescope A.Belias NOA-NESTOR A. Belias

  2. IN-SEA ON-SHORE Control Center Power station Shore DAQ GRID FrontEndUnit Electro/Optical BaseUnit Electro/Optical MEOC JunctionBox Electro/Optical Interlink cables A. Belias

  3. Shore DAQ Tasks • Receive all data from telescope (PMTs / Controls/ Earth & Sea-science) •  ALL DATA TO SHORE • Process data to extract events & calibration constants •  ON-LINE SELECTION OF WHOLE TELESCOPE • Archive events and operational conditions •  EVENTS, RAW DATA, METADATA, DETECTOR STATUS • Control and monitoring components, in-sea & on-shore •  MISSION CRITICAL AND SUB-CRITICAL UNITS • Update local Data Bases & export to remote facilities •  VALIDITY CONTEXTS AND CACHE COHERENCE A. Belias

  4. On-shore DAQ Readout Scheme ALL data are sent to shore Expected rate of 100-300Gb/s cannot be just stored Concentrate all data in temporary buffers Aggregate a time-slice of data of whole telescope Process in parallel sequences of time-slices Perform time-position correlations of photomultiplier hits Correlations in real-time for the whole telescope Data reduction factor: ~10000 Archive event data, raw data, calibration data A. Belias

  5. DAQ Architecture Scheme Optical Modules Front End Electronics In-sea Time Stamping Acquisition Node  Concentrator On-shore Data Router  Buffer S/w Trigger  Processor Data Storage Data Base Clock System Control & Monitoring A. Belias

  10. Studies • Study attainable performance of a whole readout chain. • Investigate consequences of overlapping time-slices and triggers. • Queue modeling for data path to determine buffer requirements. A. Belias

  11. Summary • Regardless of the FrontEnd Electronics of the underwater neutrino telescope, the DAQ concept on-shore has the flexibility to adapt and the modularity to scale. • The use of FPGA systems allows for flexibility in hardware. • The use of mass market, industrial, systems allows long term (10+ years) maintainability. • Due to ease of access on-shore, active components in the sea should migrate to the on-shore DAQ system.
