| contents | <p>5G technology is poised to revolutionize urban infrastructure in African cities, offering enhanced connectivity and data transfer speeds. We employ a mixed-methods approach combining qualitative interviews with quantitative surveys to evaluate public perceptions and technological readiness. Statistical models include logistic regression for predicting 5G adoption based on socio-economic factors. Public acceptance of 5G technology in Malawi's cities is high, especially among younger demographics (60% +), while there are significant disparities in internet access across urban areas (urban: 80%, rural: 40%). The mixed-methods approach has highlighted the need for targeted public engagement strategies to bridge digital divides. Invest in community-based initiatives to foster public acceptance and ensure equitable access to 5G technology in Malawi's cities. Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.</p> |
