Gamma-ray bursts are the strongest explosion in the Universe. As the brightest and cosmological events, GRBs are thought to be the promising tool to trace the star formation rate as well as detecting the environment and other properties of the universe at high redshift regime. Before extending ORB research of its own to the cosmological field, one of the basic questions will be whether these high-redshift bursts as well as their afterglows can be detected by the current and future instruments? Besides the quesion raised above, the other underlying question is whether the redshift of the burst can be determined if the redshift can not be obtained through the traditional method of optical spectroscopy? In the Thesis, we have spent most of our efforts on answering these two questions with detailed numerical results. In addition, we also carefully model GRB 050904, which has the highest redshift among GRBs and might serve as the prototype of the high-redshift GRBs, and explore the physical parameter space of the burst.
