Sumario:In this note we study the performance of the level 0 muon trigger algorithm with the muon TDR setup. The simulation of the muon detector includes a realistic description of the muon chambers, their geometry and their digitization. The results are compared to those obtained previously with a generic simulation of the muon detector. The current simulation shows a slight increase in the b->muX acceptance varying between 0 and 8%. It also shows that losses due to chamber inefficiencies, timing effect, dead time and spillover are between 0 and 9%. Both variations depend on the level of background and on the minimum bias retention level.
