1. Problem formulation
This section describes the characteristics of the debris orbits. The specifications of the cleaning program are specified and the optimization problem is formulated.
1.1 Debris orbit
A circular orbit is defined by its radius and two angles orienting the orbital plane in the inertial geocentric reference frame. The classical orbital parameters are denoted a, I, Ω (figure 1 ). The inclination I is the angle between the orbital plane and the equatorial plane. The intersection of the orbital plane with the equator is the line of nodes. The right ascension of the ascending node Ω is the angle between the X axis of the inertial reference frame and the direction of...
