  The button BPM is under development for a low beta section of the Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE) at Fermilab. The presented paper includes an analytical estimation of the BPM performance as well a direct wakefield simulation with CST Particle Studio (on a hexahedral mesh). In addition we present a novel approach of a low beta beam interaction with BPM electrodes realized with ANSYS HFSS TD-solver on unstructured tetrahedral mesh. Both methods show a good agreement of BPM output signals for various beam parameters. Finally we describe the signal processing scheme and the electronics we are going to use.
