Nanosatellite (NS) began to perform complex missions that require high orientation. In this research, we developed a mathematical model of solar sensors to determine the orientation of a NS. Various moments of obtaining the angle of the sun's rays when they hit the solar sensors were presented. The test results of the solar sensors used to simulate various orbit scenarios are described in detail, and graphs of the solar sensor readings are plotted based on the results obtained.
The article deals with modeling the motion of a NS in orbit. The NS is equipped with 6 solar panels. The VTS software was used to simulate the motion of the NS. Also, in the study of determining the orientation, two different problems were considered, that is, when the satellite is in the shadow part of the earth and when it is in the solar part of the earth. For these tasks, a mathematical model for determining the orientation was built. This method is very relevant for the study of small spacecraft.
