Humankind has benefited significantly from the advent of telecommunication services, both wired and wireless technologies. Internet broadband has been perceived as one of the essential needs of human life and contributes significantly to the overall growth of the nation. The data traffic has been growing exponentially over the years, requiring the operators to upgrade their infrastructure to meet the demand. Internet penetration has been increasing from 6% in the year 2000 to 65.7% in 2023, however, a recent report by ITU and the World Bank has shown that there is room for improvement in digital connectivity, both in terms of coverage and capacity. Around 34% of global population are yet to be connected to the Internet, and among those who are connected to the Internet, millions of users lack reliable capacity and data rates, that is, a lack of meaningful connectivity. This trend is observable both in developing and developed countries. Researchers around the world are working toward solving this challenge to meet the United Nations SDG 9, which aims toward building resilient infrastructure, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialization, and fostering innovation. The key focus on this chapter is building broadband infrastructure to bridge the digital divide between those who are digitally connected and those who are not, which helps in achieving these SDG targets in the telecommunications industry. This chapter also offers strategic insights on the access, and usage gaps, and advancing technologies aimed at bridging the digital divide.
