Generally, satellites continuously monitor that its major functions are working properly and their hardware are in a good status using several SOH data. In case a fault that is not recognized as a temporal problem or a failure that can be considered to propagate its damage to the other parts are detected, fault management logic is performed automatically without any contact of ground station. In this paper, attitude error detection using sun sensors on a rotating solar array is proposed. Attitude error can be detected by comparing the offset angle between the actual data computed from the sun sensor and the data predicted from the orbit and ephemeris information for the two types of solar array operation method. During the eclipse, the output of attitude error detection method becomes zero because the sun sensor output cannot be provided. Finally, the proposed method is analyzed through the data processing using on-orbit data.
