  Field emission (FE) is one of the main reasons for the degradation of accelerator cryomodules, as field emitted current tends to become more severe during the beam operation. It is essential to better understand how this phenomenon is generated and evolves from the SRF cavity preparation in the clean room, through their assembly in the cryomodule until their final test and operation. Due to the shielding environment of a cavity in its vertical test stand, or the architecture of a cryomodule, the more faint radiation occurring at the FE onset remains undetected. More precise diagnostic and analysis tools are required to gain more information. We present the developpement of dedicated time-resolved detectors for the FE radiation which aim at improving its coverage in terms of solid angle and lower energy threshold sensitivity. We approach this topic through detailed simulation based on the Geant4 toolkit in order to analyse the interaction of FE radiation with the cavity environement and optimize the detectors with respect to their application in cryomodule or vertical test stands. We illustrate by analysing recent cryomodule experimental test data.
