Abstract
In the attitude and orbit control subsystem design, the moment of inertia of the satellite is the major contributor to be considered. Satellites equipped with large solar arrays need to measure the moment of inertia accurately to avoid the interference of the thruster actuation period with its flexible mode. In this paper, the in-orbit tests of COMS to measure the moment of inertia are described. Then, the differences between the measured through in-orbit test and the predicted are compared. Finally, it is verified that the differences are below uncertainty bounds considered in the critical design of COMS attitude and orbit control subsystem.
