Abstract

This paper presents the performance of the LHC Beam Position System during 2010. The system proved to meet most specifications, it was highly reliable and it continuously provided 25 Hz real-time orbit data with micron level resolution to the automatic global orbit feedback system. However, several issues were observed and they will be discussed in detail, such as the dependence on bunch intensity and the effect of surface electronics temperature variations on the measured position.
