Abstract	The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has now been operated successfully for 3 years relying on the good performance of its beam instrumentation, including position and tune monitors and their respective feedback systems. This contribution gives an overview of the performance and limitations of the current orbit and tune systems. The major hardware and software modifications performed in 2012 are presented as well as the developments and improvements planned during the Long Shutdown 1 (LS1). The last part of the paper discusses the expected performances of both systems with 6.5TeV beams after LS1.
