Sumario:An LHC high-luminosity upgrade has been studied by various European and international collaborations since about 2001. Ingredients of such an LHC upgrade include the optimization of the interaction-region (IR) layout, new high-field or large-aperture triplet quadrupoles, chromatic correction, possibly detector-integrated slim magnets, crab cavities, beam-beam compensators, operation in a regime of large Piwinski angle, luminosity levelling for reduced detector pile up, heat-load, background, radiation damage due to the collision debris, and a renovation of the injector complex. Scenarios, decision paths, and present R&D efforts will be presented.
