Abstract

Aplicando-se modelos econométricos sobre dados em painel, analisou-se o possível relacionamento entre aumento da densidade de acessos de banda larga por habitantes no Brasil e o crescimento do Produto Interno Bruto (PIB) e PIB per capita. Utilizaram-se dados, desagregados por Unidades da Federação (UFs), das densidades de acessos de banda larga, PIB, PIB per capita e escolaridade da população, e dados agregados nacionalmente dos investimentos em telecomunicações. Os dados de densidade de acessos de banda larga por UF entre 2000 e 2006 tiveram de ser estimados a partir dos dados agregados nacionalmente, por só estarem disponíveis, de forma desagregada, de 2007 em diante. Applying econometric models on panel data, we analyzed the possible relation between the increase in broadband Internet access density in Brazil and the GDP and GDP per capita growth. Broadband access densities, GDP, GDP per capita and the population education level data were disaggregated at State level. Data regarding investment in telecommunications we used at the country level. Data for broadband access density per State, between 2000 and 2006, had to be estimated based on the data available at the country level, because data detailed at State (and municipality) levels are available only for 2007 and onwards.
