AT&T and Verizon will delay launching new wireless service near some airports in the United States after the nation’s largest airlines said the service would interfere with aircraft technology and cause massive flight disruptions.
The decision from the telecommunication companies arrived Tuesday as the administration of US President Joe Biden tried to broker a settlement between the telecom companies and the airlines over a rollout of new 5G service, scheduled for Wednesday.
Al Jazeera’s John Hendren reports from Chicago’s O’Hare International airport.

#FAA #Boeing #5G
LOL Just use Huawei.
Ok comrade.
Unblock Huawei and get everything fixed 😜
@canuck21 usa is not that much developed in 5G
@Kochyaan Currently there is no way for Huawei to produce any quality 5G devicees due to their main chip supplier are now only producing 4G chips.
Taiwan is the real China.
@Gilbert Plays ☆ #1 Gaming Channel 4G is out… 5G/6G is in and btw its not about chips in phone but infra/network/patent
@Gilbert Plays ☆ #1 Gaming Channel Huawei can’t produce 5G Smartphones due to US sanctions. That doesn’t mean they can’t produce 5G Network equipments. 5G Network equipment doesn’t need high end Chip. 28/14 nanometer is enough to bild them. Which can be produced domestically
Huawei is everyone complaining so much?
Huawei is da boss of 5G world
I wouldn’t expect any different decision in Biden’s America. HE’S DESTROYING YOUR COUNTRY MO….RONS
They think people are stupid.
Disneyland 🤩👍🏼🎈
Feels like a massive lawsuit is already being prepped…
Good…what is the deal…4g is good ENOUGH
No it’s slow. I love my 5g
@Collin Fifer I feel you..but if it will pose a threat to mankind thats a problem..so whatever they have that is supporting it now is good enough…💁🏿♀️let me say it like that then..take care✌🏿
@Collin Fifer It’s the plan
@Cre’Che Shaw I’m okay if it poses a threat to mankind if it means I can download apps twice as quick!
@Collin Fifer WHATEVER
Huawei 5G=No 1. Verizon and AT&T 5G suck.
If 5G is so dangerous, then, all airports in the world MUST close!
Seems like a case of special pleading to me. 5G has already been rolled out in other countries and I haven’t heard of any such issues.
Because in USA 5G accepted as humans and humans have human rights so American think they’re protector of human rights around the world 🌎 so they are protecting rights of 5G.
@WiIdbiII Nice goal post shift. Perhaps instead of going around with empty headed speculation, you should take this question as an opportunity to learn all about electromagnetic radiation across all spectrums, of which radio waves are just a small band, and also includes light. Worth learning about the difference between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation while you’re at it.
MIT have an Openware course on this stuff, so that’s probably a good place to start.
Afterwards, look into your local laws on safety signage. You’ll understand why that sign is there for you but isn’t there on 5G towers where I live.
I’m not going to waste my time explaining it to you directly, you’ll only complain about the length required to do so and won’t learn anything anyway. If you’re unwilling to go out and learn this stuff from a credible provider like MIT then we can’t take your questions as genuine.
@PUREBLOOD Funny, unless you think that changes anything.
@WiIdbiII inverse square law
@TJ Marx don’t talk safety signage to me. Your a baby in diapers , compared to me when it comes to safety signage. I worked 6 years as a traffic signal technician and highway safety sign installer for Texas department of Transportation. And my job did require me to know the laws behind the signs. That was 30 years ago , so I’m pretty sure you were crawling around with a stinky diaper when I was doing this. I also have Bush international airport 5 miles from me , so 5g trash is a much bigger concern to me than it might be for you.
Another ‘Havana Syndrome’?
America should accept 5G or be left behind
American 5G worst quality in the world but cost 10X more than best quality of Huawei.
@Jacob Lee Enjoy your 4.5G NSA troll.
the cost goes to huawei patent licensing from other 5G vendors
huawei tech is cheap but at the cost of national security. don’t be fooled.
Huawei 5g network is the best.
Why do we need 5G in the first place?? Is 4G enough?
why do we need phones? why do we need planes?
would you want to sit in a self driving car that runs on 4g..
@Eljan Rimsa they are essiential, 5G is an upgrade.Poor comparison
The new use cases will probably be less and less compelling generation after generation. However the world is competitive ,so countries have to keep up.
Just a note:
It’ not a problem with the 5G network in itself but the problem here is the spectrum frequency, 5G frequency interferes with radar altimeters of certain aircraft during landing and as y’all know,landing is one of the most dangerous phases of flight and a failure in such an essiential landing system is catastrophic.
@Devi Somaya Not really. You’re talking in hz, we’re talking in Ghz. Those are actually very different scenarios. To put that into perspective there’s 2,750,000,000hz between the highest spectrum used by AT&T or Sprint and the lowest band of spectrum used by these altimeters. It’s like someone in NYC claiming there’s a person in Boston who is speaking so loudly the person in NYC can’t think straight.
Or to put it into context of your engines, it’s like claiming to avoid 133hz 3-phase engines have to work at 2.75Ghz which ironically *WOULD* ground aircraft.
The airlines are being hysterical. The FAA sees no problem. Anyone with a basic understanding of radio waves knows there’s no problem. But just for good measure ATT&T, Sprint, the FCC and the FAA collaborated to do testing on this a year ago. The claims of the airlines have been conclusively falsified. There is no risk.
@kenter Shackle no..its country by country…in asia/eu they used sub-6/mmwabe while in att/verizon uses the c-band
@Devi Somaya its a country not following the standards…. like US 110V while the rest 220V
@kenter Shackle No, Huawei stuff is 5G, what they are rolling out in the US is marketed as 5G but is just 4G with high frequency because they don’t have the tech.
American 5G network is still slower compared with korea , Chinese and Japan ones .
Maybe they should not have banned Huawei lol
2:13 safest what? 🤔
Bulls517, 5g goes a few hundred feet. Just keep switched off the 5g antennas 1 mile from airports and perhaps add a bit of dark zone along the landing corridor. Done.
Also are those planes all just travelling within the country? As soon as they land abroad they find 5g everywhere!
Verizon’s UWB 5G goes only a few hundred feet. It’s in the 60Ghz range. C Band which is what’s causing issues is C Band which is 4-8Ghz. It can go for MILES.
Airlines know how dangerous it is.
I heard tinfoil blocks it from entering your brain
Competing with China,the US is left behind
USA is falling apart they are at the edge of collapse.
she as a spoke woman, look up but not a eye contact, she lies too often she can not look any seconds longer so that she can continue to lie
This never happens in China.
@Croiseeman lol
@Croiseeman So Huawei copied best 5G solution from west which they don’t have yet?
There are tons of country that builds 5G from Huawei China and they have no issue too
No joke this doesn’t happen in China, back to work building iPhones you maggot.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is just like another make up problem by Washington regime.
couldnt say they deserve that after accusing huawei to be used for spying.. while im absolutely sure AT&T and Verizon allow the the CIA,NSA,DEA and Pentagon to do exactly that.
FAA is completely out of its mind. Europe has 5G and American plane fly all over the world. Why is this an issue only in America? Because its not an issue at all. The FAA is completely insane for power. They attacked the Space Industry now they are after 5G.
you still dont have 5g in the US? here in thailand its already up and running. maybe you shouldnt have bullied huawei.
@AJ L just did watched some videos about it. dosnt have something to do with radiation. its just that the altimiter planes rely on to land in bad weather uses a almoust similar frequency.
C-band 5G launched in some major cities here in the US today but I didn’t hear anything about there being problems with airlines
U do know that it’s detrimental to human health in the long term right? Birds have literally died from being around them. U don’t need 5g for faster access 4g heck even 3g does the job. What possibly could u have to download that can’t wait. Trust me I’m in this field and the amount of radiation and high frequency comes with this tech is unbelievably unnecessary compared to the damage it will do to humans especially those this the jab bc who knows how the frequency will be around ppl who are vaxx.
@TruthMatters if you were a business and need to send a bunch of faxes in a timely fashion then that extra bandwidth and speed will definitely come in handy but as far as the everyday user using their device for gaming and Facebook and such 40 mbps up & 20 mbps down is plenty which is basically equivalent to that of LTE 4G
@TruthMatters Would you feel confortable sitting in a self-driving car that navigates on 3g?
This is dumb. Someone must have specifically created the problem or made it up, because it somehow only exists in the USA.
This is giving me Y2K-hype vibes…..👀
Radio frequency bandwidth is governed by FCC! The bandwidths are defined by scientists. It’s not like anyone can shoot out any radio frequency as please. You go to jail. Are they now saying that the FCC have no idea what they are doing? 🤣
Mmn
People don’t need 5G…. machines on the other hand do…
But my question is…who exactly is going to pick up the tab.
5G is without question ‘tech’s’ greatest white elephant…
Now when the ‘penny’ drops is anyone’s guess.
First I’ve heard of this ever being an issue… and I still don’t know how it is an issue.
It won’t be until you’re on the plane trying to land 🤣
It won’t be as long as it is deemed useful by the media and government.
there’s nothing demonstrated
Want to use 5G? China has it running with no problems!
why do Americans always make simple things complicated.
You using an IPhone ? Designed by us Mericans? Let’s go Brandon!
Why is nobody discussing the harm of 5G on humans. Look at the studies that show death of trees nears the 5G towers. Read about the ailments people have when near these towers. Crazy!!
I thought 5G was already out 🤔
When a ruler gives ear to a lying word,
all his servants are unworthy.
Airlines are the latest antivaxx conspiracy theorists then. Good thing, don’t get vaccinated
Airlines and Fcc are broke and trying to sue cell providers that are probably getting $500 a month from every American family. All they’d need is one downed plane
Maybe they could cover the planes with tinfoil
Microwaving yourself if you live near a 5G tower . . .
is all because of 5G invented by China?!!
It was the same when mobile phone was introduced
Meanwhile China enjoying superior 5G by Help of Huawei. The King of 5G technology
Anti Chinese technologys propaganda, otherwise American oldest technology Falldown global 5G networks/ equipment.
It is smarter for US to stay in 4G and wait for airline disaster caused by 5G in other countries, especially in China!
Because they are lying to people, what they are rolling out is not real 5G hence this problem being in the US only. When you don’t have the 5G tech because you demonized the developers of the tech and hardware (HUAWEI), you end up making some nonesense like this by broadcasting 4G LTE at a higher frequency and marketing it as 5G…….
Looking at the antenna’s shown, it is not 5G.
If only it was huawei 5G devices, the title would be “HUAWEI SABOTAGES US AIRLINES WITH 5G TECHNOLOGY, US NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT”
US 5g Technology is just outdated why is China’s 5g working even on Airports
Allah-Akbar !! Astaghfirullah !!
,no 5g🖕🖕🖕
Oh yeah, it’s the END OF THE 5G WORLD……clean up your horse manure. Everyone doesn’t need 5G C-band at all the airports, 4GLTE is plenty fast. At LAX and the other biggies, they all can have mmWave, which is a mile away from the Altimeter’s band. Further, what pecentage of people have 5G phones already that can use C-Band???? Maybe 10% (there’s a list and it’s only brand new Apples plus Galaxies. So get off your high horse and stop screaming for eyeballs making a big stink over 5G C-band.
Conspiracy theorists have started fighting development with non-existing fears .
Easy fix – use Huawei 5G, don’t lie anymore.
The Lighthouse of Democracy – – –
You are better off staying with your 4G
while China is getting ready for 6G 😅 😀
Result of ban Huawei
😆😁😁😅😅🤣😂😂😄😄😃😃😀😀
AT &T perusahaan BEGO 😀😀
Am using 6G 🤣🤣
Well I mean you can stop these corporate slime.
After 10 unexplained crashed a day they’re gonna turn it off
Huawei owns 60% of 5G patents. Going around it is the main problem.
Trump’s tariffs and kidnapping of Huawei CFO , complete failure.
American infrastructure failure being covered up with silly’s stories How come China’s planes are not crashing
So basically the US is too incompetent to rollout 5g without risking flights. They should hire Huawei to do it properly.
This is not a problem with 5G.
This is a problem with spectrum.
Traffic controllers use 4.2 GHz.
In the US, 5G uses 3.7 to 3.98Ghz…which is too close.
Other countries limit their spectrum up to only 3.8Ghz.
So, this problem is only unique to the US.
Upgrade your planes not degrading people’s connection.
5G cause plane landing problem? How did those planes land in countries with 5G?
How do other 40 countries do it with their 5G?
Then those 5G-scared planes should not be flying nor landing anywhere in those 40 other countries… imagine you have a 5G cell phone users on boards.
