A satellite digital audio radio system (SDARS) transmitter provides a broadcast transmission signal including a time division multiplex (TDM) mode of transmission and a coded orthogonal frequency multiplex (OFDM) mode of transmission. The SDARS transmitter provides a transmission signal that supports four transport mechanisms or traffic channels: (1) multiple audio and data program channels (program channels), (2) a cluster control information channel (CC), (3) a global control information channel (GC), and (4) a synchronization channel (CS). In particular, the SDARS transmitter processes 100 program channels into 5 clusters, each cluster comprising GC and CS information, along with a program cluster comprising 20 program channels and CC information. The SDARS transmitter further partitions each cluster into 255 cluster segments and interleaves the cluster segments from each cluster for transmission.
