Summary:A satellite direct radio broadcast system (10) assemblies bits of broadcast programs into prime rate increments assembled into a frame (100). Frames (100) are divided into symbols which are demultiplexed into a plurality of prime rate channels (110). The prime rate channels (110) are demultiplexed into corresponding broadcast frequencies (21) for transmission to a satellite (25). An on board demultiplexer (144) separates uplink signals into time division multiplexed streams of symbols (154). A phase shift keying demodulator (146) demodulates the symbols into digital baseband data. The satellite payload switches the symbols into time division multiplexed data streams using two ping-pong buffers (156) and a routing switch (172). The receivers (29) process TDM streams using frame preambles and control channels provided by the satellite (25) and service control headers provided by broadcast stations (23, 24). A management system is provided to manage the satellite (25) and broadcast stations (23, 24).
