Design of a synthetic population of geostationary space debris by statistical means 2017 We can observe and track objects located at the geostationary region with a size of approximately 1 meter by telescope means. However, a huge population of space debris still remains unknown for us. In this work, we propose to generate a synthetic (artificial) population of individual space debris, whose global characteristics are the same as the real one. We use two different tools; the first one, a combination of orbit propagators, fragmentation models, and historical data, and the second one, an Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) procedure, which allows to reconstruct the current population from partial data and statistical information.
