Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:

The increasing presence of space debris poses a significant threat to operational satellites and space missions. Accurate orbit determination of these debris objects is crucial for collision avoidance and effective space traffic management. This study focuses on the development and implementation of numerical methods and orbit estimation algorithms. Challenges related to high uncertainty and limitations in observing small debris objects are addressed, with proposed solutions to enhance orbit determination accuracy through data fusion from multiple sensors and optimization techniques. The results of this study provide valuable tools for predicting the trajectories of space debris and offer strategies to mitigate the risks of collisions in Earth's orbital environment.
