✦ Synopsis

In this paper, muon detection with the hadronic calorimeter of ATLAS, Tile calorimeter, is developed using an optimal filter system. Using experimental data from recent testbeam periods, a detection efficiency of 93.5% is achieved for a false alarm probability of 10%. This outperforms classical methods currently being used.
