The Advanced Meteoroid Orbit Radar system (AMOR) has been routinely collecting meteoroid orbital data since 1990. Recently the ~4×105 orbit filtered data set obtained between 1995 and the end of 1999 has been examined to determine the orbital distribution present at 1 AU. It is important to take full and proper account of several observational bias effects inherent in the radar technique. This paper describes our analysis procedure. The final orbital distributions determined are presented and a comparison is made to earlier data from the Harvard Radio Meteor Project. The AMOR orbital distributions are being used as one of the inputs to a new model of the interplanetary dust population being developed with the support of the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC).
