1.2 Message, information & signal
lMessage:speech, letters, figures, images…
lInformation:effective content of message. Different types of messages may contain the same information
# Information content I = I [ P(x) ],P(x) – Occurrence probability
# Definition:I = loga [1/P(x)] = -logaP(x) # Usually, set a = 2, the unit of the information content will be called a bit.

Ideal characteristic
Ideal characteristic: phase --- () = k ;
group delay --- () = d()/d = k
Influence of distortion: waveform distortion, inter-symbol interference
