3. Figures and examples from Euroconsult study
Close to 50 satellites covering at least part of Africa with C-band capacity in 2014, out of around 72 satellites covering the region. Overall, satellite operators supply a total capacity of ~14 GHz in C-band in 2014 in Africa (~50% of “regular” capacity supply in the region, i.e. excluding HTS proprietary military satellites).
Satellite capacity usage in C-band stood ~ GHz in Sub Saharan Africa (“SSA”) in 2013, corresponding to a fill rate close to 80% of capacity supplied, and to around 58% of the total satellite capacity used in the region.
A recent trend in Africa has been the emergence of regional/national systems. All satellites procured by organizations in SSA (i.e. Rascom, Nigcomsat, DRC and Angola) are carrying a C-band payload. Information available suggests that the C-band represents 20%-70% of the satellite capacity, with an average of ~45%.
