Abstract :
In this paper we developed multi-switch satellite digital system (MSDS). MSDS provides eight output lines from three input lines. The MSDS system is suitable for airport hotels where many users can use different satellites (Hotbird, Nilesat, Cirius ... etc) using only single fixed dish with three low noise blocks (LNB), instead of using three fixed dishes with three LNBs. This system can be modified to be suitable for n number of users.
