摘要：
We have determined distributions of orbital debris vs height and scattering cross section at 46.5 MHz, the lowest frequency ever used for this purpose, from a series of observations made with a high-power VHF Doppler radar (MU radar) of Japan. An automated data processing algorithm has been developed to discriminate echoes of orbiting objects from those of undesired signals such as meteor trail echoes or lightning atmospherics. Although the results are preliminary, they show good agreement with previous results using much higher frequencies.
