Mathematical Theory of Communication


Paper by Claude Shannon

  • The information source {produces a message}.
  • The transmitter {encodes the message} into {a form capable of being sent as a signal}.
  • The channel is the {medium through which the signal passes}.
  • The noise source represents the {distortions and corruptions} that afflict the signal on its way to the receiver.
  • The receiver {decodes the message}, reversing the action of the transmitter.
  • The destination is the {recipient of the message}.
