In this note different algorithms to reconstruct the signal from the read out samples are described and compared. Criteria for comparison are defined and used to judge the different extractors applied to calibration signals, cosmics and pedestals. At the end, a best extractor is proposed. The question of pedestal calculation for the different extractors is adressed. \end{abstract} %% contents %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \thetableofcontents \newpage %% body %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \include{Introduction} \include{Reconstruction} \include{Algorithms} \include{Pedestal} \include{Criteria} \include{Performance} \include{Discussion} \include{Conclusions} \bibliography{bibfile} \bibliographystyle{bibstyle} \end{document}
