If it’s behaved like that, it will lose its strength. Here sender plays the primary role and receiver plays the secondary role (receive the information or passive)ĥ. The model based on “Sender and Receiver”. It’s more effective in person-to-person communication than group or mass audienceĤ. The model which attracts both academics of Human communication and Information theorist to leads their further research in communicationģ. One of the simplest model and its general applied in various communication theoriesĢ. *The noise which affect the communication flow between them.Ĭriticism of Shannon-Weaver model of communication :ġ. Again Assistant asked Thomson (feedback) “what do you want Thomson”.ĭue to transmission error or noise, Assistant can’t able to understand Thomson’s messages. During his call, noise appeared (transmission error) and his assistant received “I want” only. Thomson made call to his assistant “come here I want to see you”. Practical Example of Shannon-Weaver model of communication : For example: If there is any problems occur in network which directly affect the mobile phone communication or distract the messages Note : The model is clearly deals with external noises only which affect the messages or signals from external sources. During this process the messages may distracted or affected by physical noise like horn sounds, thunder and crowd noise or encoded signals may distract in the channel during the transmission process which affect the communication flow or the receiver may not receive the correct message Noise: The messages are transferred from encoder to decoder through channel. If the message distracted by noise it will affect the communication flow between sender and receiver Note : Based on the decoded message the receiver gives their feed back to sender. Receiver : The destination of the message from sender

Otherwise receiver can’t receive the exact message and it will affect the effective communication between sender and receiver Note : The receiver converts those binary data or waves into message which is comfortable and understandable for receiver. For example: In telephone the voice is converted into wave signals and it transmits through cablesĭecoder : The reception place of the signal which converts signals into message. Note: The sender’s messages converted into signals like waves or Binary data which is compactable to transmit the messages through cables or satellites. Sender : The originator of message or the information source selects desire messageĮncoder : The transmitter which converts the message into signals The model deals with various concepts like Information source, transmitter, Noise, channel, message, receiver, channel, information destination, encode and decode. Later it’s widely applied in the field of Communication. At first the model was developed to improve the Technical communication.

Also they find factors which affecting the communication process called “Noise”. This model is specially designed to develop the effective communication between sender and receiver. His interests are in critical theory, cultural studies, and rhetorical studies.In 1948, Shannon was an American mathematician, Electronic engineer and Weaver was an American scientist both of them join together to write an article in “Bell System Technical Journal” called “A Mathematical Theory of Communication” and also called as “Shannon-Weaver model of communication”. He has taught at Arizona State University, California State University, San Bernardino and the University of Iowa. He has been a Fulbright lecturer at the Universit de Mons-Hainaut in Belgium and Libra Professor at the University of Maine. in communication studies from the University of Iowa. Nakayama is Professor and Director of the Department of Communications Studies, Northeastern University. Her current research interests focus on: the role of communication in cross cultural transitions, white identity and and communication, and pedagogical issues in teaching intercultural communication. She also has experience in cross cultural training and has co-authored three books with Prof.

She also studied at the Universit de Grenoble for a year, and was involved in study aboard administration for a number of years. in speech communication from the Pennsylvania State University. Martin is currently Herberger Professor of Communication in the Hugh Downs School of Human Communication at Arizona State University.
