In this video we explain the basic principles of Claude Shannon's Channel Coding Theorem.

Shannon’s channel coding theorem is of great importance to our digital world, enabling clear access to anywhere in the world without the interruption of noise. We hope this animation can help you develop an intuition for the theorem, and stimulate your interest in information theory. Enjoy~

This video was created by PhD students of the Information and Communication Theory Lab of Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands.

An earlier version of this video competed in the 2020 Student Video Exposition of the International Symposium on Information Theory.
