After growing at a 136 percent annual rate between 2013 and 2014, mobile Internet access using Long Term Evolution 4G in Africa will grow at a 98-percent compound annual growth rate between 2014 and 2020, according to analysts at Ovum.
Mobile broadband accounted for just 17 percent of the 884 million total mobile subscriptions in Africa at the end of 2014, but will account for 76 percent of the total of 1.32 billion mobile subscriptions in Africa in 2020, Ovum estimates.
Ovum also notes that, in the third quarter of 2015, LTE represented nearly a billion subscriptions, some 53 percent used across Asia and Oceania, compared to 24 percent in North America, 13 percent in Western Europe, four percent in South America and one percent in Africa.
