    The Shannon-Weaver model of communication describes how information is transmitted through a medium from a sender to a receiver. It includes seven key components: an information source, transmitter, channel, noise, decoder, receiver, and feedback. Claude Shannon first introduced the concepts in 1948, and Warren Weaver later helped popularize the model in 1949 by translating it to more accessible terms. The model laid the foundation for information theory and modern digital communication.

    Shannon-Weaver

    Model of
    Communication
    What is Shannon-Weaver
    Communication Model?

    It was first introduced in 1949 by Claude


    Shannon and Warren Weaver. They introduced
    the concept of "noise." The model describes
    how information is transmitted through a
    medium, such as radio or television.
    Who is Claude Shannon
    and Warren Weaver

    Claude Shannon was an American


    mathematician and electrical engineer
    who is considered the father of modern
    information theory. He is best known for
    his work on the mathematical theory of
    CLAUDE SHANNON
    communication, which laid the
    foundations for the digital revolution and
    the information age. Shannon developed
    the concept of entropy, which is a
    measure of the amount of uncertainty or
    randomness in a message, and used it
    to define the channel capacity of a
    communication system.
    Who is Claude Shannon
    and Warren Weaver

    Was an American scientist who worked


    in the fields of mathematics, physics,
    and engineering. He was a key figure
    in the development of information
    WARREN WEAVER theory and played a key role in the
    development of the Shannon-Weaver
    model of communication. Weaver was
    particularly interested in the application
    of information theory to problems in the
    natural and social sciences, and he
    played a key role in popularizing the
    model and its concepts to a wider
    audience.
    When and Where was the
    Model developed?

    Shannon-Weaver model of communication was


    developed by Claude Shannon and Warren
    Weaver in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
    Shannon first introduced the key concepts of the
    model in a 1948 paper and Weaver later helped to
    popularize the model by translating it into more
    accessible terms in his 1949 book. The model is
    considered one of the first mathematical models of
    communication and it laid the foundation for the
    field of information theory and the development of
    modern communication technology.

    7 Key Components

    SENDER
    ENCODER
    The Shannon Weaver model starts with
    the sender or “information source”. They The encoder is the

    information source) who has the that converts the idea

    information source starts the process by be sent from the
    choosing a message to send, someone sender to the receiver.
    to send the message to, and a channel
    through which to send the message.

    CHANNEL NOISE
    The channel of communication is the Noise interrupts a
    infrastructure that gets information message while it’s on the
    from the sender and transmitter way from the sender to
    through to the decoder and receiver. the receiver. There are
    We sometimes also call this the two types of noise:
    ‘medium’. internal and external.
    Components of
    the Model

    DECODER RECEIVER
    The receiver is the end-point of the
    Decoding is the exact opposite original Shannon and Weaver
    of encoding. Shannon and model of the technical
    Weaver made this model in communication process. This is the
    reference to communication step where the person finally gets
    that happens through devices the message, or what’s left of it after
    like telephones. accounting for noise.

    FEEDBACK
    Feedback occurs when the receiver of the message responds
    to the sender in order to close the communication loop. They
    might respond to let the sender know they got the message or
    to show the sender:
    • Whether they got the message clearly without noise
    • How well they understand the message
