Swedish term or phrase: brus(et)
"brus"/"bruset" in the specific context of mass-advertising/marketing. I know what is meant but wondered if anyone could come up with a good English equivalent. Grateful for any help.

Example sentence(s):
  • Sändaren kodar in sitt budskap i form av ett meddelande som avkodas av mottagaren. Det meddelande som mottagaren tar emot är sällan exakt detsamma som skickats, på grund av störande brus (noise).
  • Noise any influence external to the sender or receiver which distorts the message in the communication process. See Communication Process. (Marketing dictionary)
