Systems and methods for receiving non-coherent layered modulation signals are presented. An exemplary apparatus comprises a tuner for receiving a layered signal and producing a layered in-phase signal and a layered quadrature signal therefrom, an analog-to-digital converter for digitizing the layered in-phase signal and the layered quadrature signal, a processor for decoding the layered in-phase signal and the layered quadrature signal to produce a single layer in-phase signal and a single layer quadrature signal, a digital-to-analog encoder for converting the single layer in-phase signal and the single layer quadrature signal to a single layer in-phase analog signal and a single layer quadrature analog signal and a modulator for modulating the single layer in-phase analog signal and the single layer quadrature analog signal to produce a single layer signal.
