There are a number of recievers around the circuit that pick up the signals from the cars. These are then sent back to the TV compound by (I think) fibre optic.

This is the reason why in recent years the on-boards have been break up free especially when passing under bridges and allows the live on-board views through the tunnel at Monaco.
The onboards were breaking up in the heavy tree cover at the end of S1 and the bridge at the end of S3 though?
