The Bell system technical journal, 1948•ieeexplore.ieee.orgThe recent development of various methods of modulation such as PCM and PPM which
exchange bandwidth for signal-to-noise ratio has intensified the interest in a general theory
of communication. A basis for such a theory is contained in the important papers of Nyquist 1
and Hartley 2 on this subject. In the present paper we will extend the theory to include a
number of new factors, in particular the effect of noise in the channel, and the savings
possible due to the statistical structure of the original message and due to the nature of the …
