(eng): A new entropy of belief functions in the Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory satisfying a compound distributions property is defined. The paper describes some important properties of this definition and discusses its semantics. The comparison with some other definitions reveals that these definitions measure dissonance and not uncertainty.
