Shannon-Weaver model

The Shannon-Weaver Model is a framework for understanding communication. It describes how a message is sent from a sender to a receiver. The sender encodes the message, which then travels through a channel, possibly facing noise that can distort it. The receiver decodes the message to understand it. The model highlights the importance of clear transmission and the potential for misunderstandings due to interference. It is foundational in fields like telecommunications, information theory, and media studies, illustrating the complexities of effective communication.
