Decentralized wireless (DeWi) network operator World Mobile said on June 8 it has completed field tests of its DeWi technology in Kenya, Mozambique, and Nigeria, bringing it closer to a full rollout across the African continent, the company said in the announcement.
World Mobile, which aims to offer affordable and reliable internet access to rural areas that are traditionally under-served, said the tests in Kenya and Mozambique were carried out using TV White Space equipment, employing unused spectrum in the TV broadcast band to provide mobile network services.
