在过去的几十年里，动物通信界越来越意识到，许多交流是通过多种形式的多种信号进行的。这项工作的大部分都是经验性的，很少有关于这种交流所带来的好处的理论工作。在这篇论文中，我们问：为什么动物应该以多种方式用多种信号进行交流？为了解决这个问题，我们使用了博弈论技术，并强调了经济信号文献中的发展，这些文献可能会提供对生物问题的洞察。我们从建立一个信号游戏开始，并在两种流行的诚实沟通范式下研究信号诚实-昂贵的信号发送和廉价的谈话。在这两个范例中，在没有进一步限制的情况下，很容易证明任何可以用多个信号实现的东西都可以用一个信号实现。我们继续研究可能使多个信号，特别是多模式信号更有可能演变的不同的可能约束集。我们认为，对成本函数和带宽的限制、跨模式的正交噪声、战略上不同的模式、多种质量、多个信号者和多个受众，所有这些都提供了在理论上有利于多模式和多模式信令的生物学上可信的场景。
Over the last few decades the animal communication community has become increasingly aware that much communication occurs using multiple signals in multiple modalities. The majority of this work has been empirical, with less theoretical work on the advantages conferred by such communication. In the present paper, we ask: Why should animals communicate with multiple signals in multiple modalities? To tackle this question we use game theoretic techniques, and highlight developments in the economic signaling literature that might offer insight into biological problems. We start by establishing a signaling game, and investigate signal honesty under two prevailing paradigms of honest communication – costly signaling and cheap talk. In both paradigms, without further constraint, it is simple to show that anything that can be achieved with multiple signals can be achieved with one. We go on to investigate different sets of possible constraints that may make multiple signals and multimodal signals in particular more likely to evolve. We suggest that constraints on cost functions and bandwidths, orthogonal noise across modalities, strategically distinct modes, multiple qualities, multiple signalers, and multiple audiences, all provide biologically plausible scenarios that theoretically favor multiple and multimodal signaling.
