Abstract

A system of satellite signal down conversion and reception comprises a low noise block down converter and a plurality of receivers. The low noise block down converter simultaneously and periodically sends a reference timing command to the plurality of receivers. Each of the plurality of receivers calibrates its timing based on the reference timing command to generate a plurality of data frames. Each of the data frames includes a plurality of time slots, and a time slot is designated to transmit data between the receiver and the low noise block down converter. Furthermore, each of the plurality of receivers uses a different time slot.
