5G and Aviation Safety
The FAA, collaborating with the aviation sector and wireless providers, has completed work to ensure that radio signals from newly activated wireless telecommunications systems can coexist safely with flight operations in the United States until at least January 1, 2028. Voluntary mitigations by the telecommunication operators, combined with aircraft radio altimeter retrofits by aviation operators, have resulted in the fielding of 5G C-Band with minimized impacts acceptable to both industries.
