  • Abstract
    Shannon Entropy, for discrete-valued random variables, plays an important roles in information theory, with applicability in cryptography and communication theory. The purpose of this paper is to present a new bound for the Shannon Entropy. For this we first present a refinement of Jensen´s inequality.
