BCM1F $\mu$TCA readout and visible cross-section measurements

In the CMS experiment, the Fast Beam Conditions Monitor (BCM1F) provides an online, bunch-by-bunch measurement of luminosity and machine induced background. The Beam Pickup Transformer (BPTX) provides a precise measurement of beam intensity and arrival time. Upgraded back-end electronics have been developed for the BCM1F, based on the $\mu$TCA standard. This system is slated to replace the current VME-based readout as well as the BPTX readout for the next LHC run. This note includes performance plots for both the upgraded back-end and the current BRIL Luminometers.
