This lesson covers the concept of multi-dimensional signaling, which is crucial for waveforms in IMT-Advanced or the fourth generation system. It further explains the concept of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and how it forms the foundation for the next set of discussions. For instance, the lesson uses the example of sending all signals simultaneously using OFDM, resulting in a significant improvement in data rate.
