Resumo

LHC muon trigger detectors are supposed to work for 10 yr under an intense #ux of radiation.Therefore, in the framework of ATLAS, the performance of full and reduced size RPC prototypes, heavily irradiated with sources, were measured for variable incident #uxes.We introduce here a detector description in terms of the `globala parameters based on experimental data such as current, total counting rate and #uxes.In this test the ATLAS "nal front-end electronics was used for the "rst time.
