CATS Track Recognition Strategy

The main development goals of CATS were the highest possible efficiency of track reconstruction and the minimization of the computational cost at each step of the track recognition procedure. This approach has resulted in the optimized track recognition strategy schematically shown in Fig. 4.2. As can be seen, the multi-step track reconstruction process for the OTR is similar to that for the Inner Tracker.
