Enabling Ubiquitous Global Communications in Equatorial Guinea Via the Transformation of Getesa. Am. J. Eng. Technol.
This paper focuses on the modernization of the first national Mobile Network of Equatorial Guinea, called GETESA. Equatorial Guinea has three telecommunication companies: GETESA, Muni and Gecomsa. Getesa is the largest and the historical Equatorial Guinea telecommunication company established in 1987.
Equatorial Guinea has three telecommunication companies: GETESA, Muni and Gecomsa. Getesa is the largest and the historical Equatorial Guinea telecommunication company established in 1987. The Government of Equatorial Guinea holds 60% of the company whereas France Cable held 40% until it transferred its shares to Orange in 2010.
This paper focuses on the modernization of the first national Mobile Network of Equatorial Guinea, called GETESA. The government's decision to invest and take full control of the network was motivated by the lack of network quality, which had poor capacity, with 69% of the network coverage Received-Signal-Code-Power (RSCP) below 95dMm.
To solve this, telecom companies are installing indoor 5G base stations, which are growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 30%. For businesses operating in offices, malls, or large commercial spaces, installing indoor 5G solutions can greatly enhance connectivity.
The U.S. has ambitious plans for 5G expansion, aiming to have more than 300,000 active base stations by 2025. This goal is being driven by investment from private telecom providers and government initiatives like the Rural 5G Fund. For businesses in the U.S., this means increasing access to high-speed connectivity.
While China leads in sheer numbers, the U.S. is making steady progress. By late 2023, the country had between 150,000 and 200,000 active 5G base stations. The deployment strategy in the U.S. is different from China’s, as it relies on private investment rather than government-led initiatives. Is this article too long?
They help fill coverage gaps, improve network reliability, and handle high data traffic. In cities, more than 60% of 5G base stations are small cells, placed on rooftops, lampposts, and building facades. These mini base stations are crucial for delivering consistent 5G speeds in crowded areas like stadiums, shopping malls, and business districts.
Equatorial Guinea has two main electricity systems, for Bioko Island, and for the continental Rio Muni region. SEGESA has 730 employees across the three business units in Malabo for the Bioko system, and 823 employees in Bata and the continental region.
The power grid in Equatorial Guinea is divided in two parts: the island grid (Malabo, Bioko Island) and the continental grid (Bata, Rio Muni). The high voltage power grid in the Rio Muni region has allowed the government to invest in interconnection points with Gabon and Cameroon.
Equatorial Guinea continues to invest heavily in the production and distribution of energy.
Electricity consumption in Equatorial Guinea in 2015 was 36 kilotonnes of oil equivalent (ktoe). The country produces all of the energy it consumes. As of 2012, renewable energy accounted for 29.2% of the final energy mix.

5G networks divide coverage areas into smaller zones called cells, enabling devices to connect to local base stations via radio. Each station connects to the broader telephone network and the Internet through high-speed optical fiber or wireless backhaul.

Hormuud Telecom is optimistic about the future, citing an existing 4G network that serves 70% of the population. The company anticipates an increase in coverage, with 5G services reaching 88% of urban dwellers and approximately 70% of rural communities within a year.
The marketing of non-5G services refers to the promotion of enhanced 4G networks that are presented as precursors or equivalents to 5G. Some mobile network operators marketed upgraded 4G technologies using terms that suggested 5G capability.
The company anticipates an increase in coverage, with 5G services reaching 88% of urban dwellers and approximately 70% of rural communities within a year. The launch of the 5G network promises faster and more reliable internet services, with the company claiming over 80% coverage capability in its initial statement.
