WIMAX in Africa
.Wimax in Africa
      In the recent years, Africa has truly proved itself as
      one of the leading suppliers of the WiMAX indus-
      try. AccessKenya is one of the largest WiMAX net-
      works in East Africa. They provide wireless broad-
      band for residential use in the cities of Nairobi
      and Mombasa in Kenya. MTN Uganda has made
      it their goal to provide countrywide WiMAX ac-
      cess in Uganda, and has already installed several
      operating networks.

.Wimax in Africa
      The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA), which
      regulates telecommunications in South Africa, issued four licenses for com-
      mercial WiMAX services to the Internet Service Providers iBurst, Sentech,
      Neotel, and Telkom. South Africa currently hosts a few scattered operational
      WiMAX networks, but with the issuance of these licenses, the country is ex-
      pected see many more networks appear in the upcoming months. Delays in
      the award of licenses for providing WiMAX services and the limited roll-out
      of services that have been licensed has resulted in dampening of its poten-
      tial impact. Only those companies that have already deployed WiMAX have
      appreciated its impact. These companies are all using Telkom’s scaled down
      version of wimax. According to studies conducted in 2008, 8% of corpora-
      tions in South Africa have adopted WiMAX options as part of their connec-
      tivity mix in 2007 but they did not use wimax as a preferred form of connec-
      tivity and deployed it where no other options were available, such as in rural
      areas or areas with rough terrain.

      In Angola, MSTelcom has deployed a WiMAX network to blanket
      over half of Luanda with broadband Internet service. In Nigeria,
      Galaxy Wireless Communications Limited has launched the coun-
      try’s first Mobile broadband service based on the IEEE 802.16e
      standard. XS Broadband is also a major contributor to the install-
      ment of WiMAX in Nigeria and currently holds licenses for 24 of
      the 36 Nigerian states. Alvarion Ltd. also announced in june 09
      that it was chosen by Mobitel, Sri Lanka’s national mobile services
      provider, to offer 802.16e WiMAX solutions to areas in Nigeria
      with little internet service. The Middle East and Africa were the
      fastest growing regions for WiMAX in 2008.

      Infonetics Research, a market research and consult-

      tion of its ‘WiMAX Equipment, Devices, and Sub-
      scribers’ report, which indicated that Africa will be
      a hotbeds of WiMAX activity along with the Mid-
      dle East and India.
