Sumario:The CMS inner pixel detector system is planned to be upgraded during the first phase of LHC upgrades. The plans call for an ultra low mass system with four barrel layers with three disks on either end. With the expected increase in particle rates, the electronic readout chain will be changed for fast digital signals. An overview of the envisaged design options for the upgraded CMS pixel detector is given, as well as estimates for the tracking and vertexing performance of the device.
