A theorem establishing conditions under which it is possible or impossible to transmit information generated by a given source of information (cf. Information, source of) through a given communication channel and within specified limits of accuracy of reproducibility of the information (see Information, exactness of reproducibility of). There exist different formulations of Shannon's theorem (see Information, transmission of and the references – to that article).
