The AMS (Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer) group reported unexpected results on the albedo electrons below the geomagnetic cutoff at a height of 380 km; the average ratio of e+/eis about 2 and it is dependent on the (magnetic) latitude. The ratio at low latitudes even reaches to 4. A semiquantitative interpretation of this observation was given by one of the authors (Huang) using the east-west effect due to the geomagnetic field. Extending that work, we try to reproduce all the observed features by a Monte-Carlo simulation. In this paper we introduce the method of simulation and show some of the preliminary results.
