The observational simulation of the synchronous debris
Abstract
The observation of synchronous debris is simulated in this paper. At two sites: Nanjing station and Kunming station, employing two ways that are tracking stars and tracking satellites, and observing the geostationary satellites with the identical geographical longitude, the simulating observation is made. The method of finding the new object and its initial orbit are given. A helpful effort on the database of space debris is made.
