1. A method for measuring an output multiplixer (OMUX) transfer function, comprising:
- receiving a broadcast downlink signal from a satellite;
demodulating the broadcast downlink signal;
remodulating the demodulated signal; and
comparing the received broadcast downlink signal to the remodulated signal to estimate the OMUX transfer function of the satellite.

Abstract
A method, apparatus, and system provide the ability to conduct an on-line measurement of an output multiplixer (OMUX) transfer function. A broadcast downlink signal is received from a satellite. The broadcast downlink signal is demodulated and then remodulated. The received broadcast downlink signal is then compared to the remodulated signal to estimate the OMUX transfer function of the satellite.
