More DescriptionCommunication theory is a branch of mathematics and information theory that studies both the technical processes of information and human communication. New models of communication to be developed from different scientific perspectives, such as psychology and sociology. A model in science is a structure that represents an idea.
Different disciplines, including engineering and mathematics, began to use the Shannon and Weaver models to their advantage as a transmissible model'. Communication engineers found the work of Shannon and Weaver useful in solving issues such as how many communication channels can be used in a given amount of 'bits per seconds'.
ELEMENTS FOR COMMUNICATION
Communication theory has been studying the basic elements of communication.
Source: Shannon refers to this element as the "information source", or the one that "produces a message, sequence of messages to be transmitted to the receiving terminal."
Sender: Shannon refers to this element as the "transmitter", and it "operates on the message in a way that produces a signal suitable to be transmitted over the channel."
Channel: Shannon sees the channel as "merely the medium that transmits the signal from transmitter into receiver."
Receiver: Shannon describes the receiver as "Performs the Inverse Operation of That Done by the Transmitter, Reconstructing the Signal from Itself."
Destination: Shannon defines destination as "the person or thing for whom the message is intended".
Latin message, meaning "to send", comes from Latin mittere. A message is information, a communication or idea that is sent to the recipient in a written, verbal, recorded, or visual format.
