Sumario: | Measuring the beam transverse emittance is fundamental in every accelerator, in
particular for the LHC, where its precise determination and preservation is
essential to maximize the luminosity and thus the performance of the colliding
beams. In this contribution, a review of the status of the synchrotron radiation
monitors, the beam gas vertex detector and the wirescanners will be presented
alongside the assessment of the obtained performance. The new features
implemented and the issues encountered during 2017's operation will be
highlighted. Additionally, the interventions and improvements planned for the
coming winter shutdown will be discussed.
