0 211

Aviation and telecom groups in the United States have said they will share data to help resolve safety concerns related to new 5G wireless service.

Aviation groups and the Federal Aviation Administration have since flagged concerns about interference with aircraft altimeters.

Wireless trade group CTIA, Airlines for America and the Aerospace Industries Association, will be working together to share the available data from all parties to identify the specific areas of concern for aviation.”

The FAA last month said 5G service could interfere with aircraft radio altimeters. Earlier this month, it issued an order that could prohibit pilots from using radio altimeters to land when visibility is low.
