A method for the computation of the distributions of orbital elements of meteor bodies based on observations of a number of meteors is presented. The method is used to process azimuth meteor observations at the equator in January 1969. Accuracy estimations show that the distributions of parameters are determined with high precision only for the region of the celestial sphere where radiant elongations are less than 120°. It is impossible to make an unambiguous conclusion about the structure of the entire meteor complex, because the statistical significance of observations in the antapex region is low. The evolution of orbital elements is studied with allowance made for gravitation perturbations from Jupiter, the non-gravitational Poynting-Robertson effect, and its corpuscular analog. Variations in the distributions of orbital elements over an interval of 10 kyrs are analyzed.
