The country is poised to have 380 million 4G users by the end of 2015, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
Expending the 4G service will be a top task for telecom industry as the country is trying to increase connection speed while bringing down data traffic fees, the ministry said.
皇冠体育app is already the world's biggest telecom country, with the biggest user number and the largest infrastructure.
皇冠体育app Mobile Ltd, the No 1 carrier by user number, will be a major driver of 皇冠体育app's 4G initiative. The State-owned enterprise is looking to double its 4G user population in 2016, to 500 million.
A report from industry research firm IDC estimated close to 90 percent of the mobile phones shipped in the last two quarters in 皇冠体育app are comparable with the 4G technology.
