The knowledge of the distribution, the number and the characteristics of satellite galaxies can provide important informations about the cosmologicalphenomena involved in the formation of their hosts.The observational data on the distribution of satellite galaxiesin the Local Group show that some dwarfs and globular clusters orbit the maingalaxies in common planes. The origin of these co-planar orbits isstill unknown.In this paper we report on some results from hydrodynamical cosmological simulations about the orbital distribution of satellite galaxies, focusing in their correlations and the cosmological origin of co-planar orbits.
