US Airlines CEOs warn of the impact of the fifth-generation Internet on aircraft

US airlines have warned that fifth-generation Internet waves could disrupt the operation of several aircraft and confuse hundreds of air passengers in the United States, IRNA reported on Tuesday from Al Jazeera.
Senior executives of American Airlines, Delta Airlines, United Airlines, South West Airlines and others said: “If the fifth generation Internet is implemented in our main centers, the majority of passengers and cargo flights will be grounded.”
The US Federal Aviation Administration has warned that possible interference of 5G internet waves with aircraft sensitive devices such as altimeters could affect aircraft performance in conditions such as low visibility landings.
The agency added: “This means that on a day like yesterday, more than 1,100 flights and 100,000 passengers will face cancellation, rerouting or flight delays.”
AT&T and Verizon, which in a $ 80 billion contract have been licensed to provide fifth-generation Internet access, have agreed to create a safe environment around about 50 airports in the United States to reduce the risk of impact of fifth-generation Internet waves on aircraft. .
American airlines have demanded 5G internet technology at a distance of 3. Do not use 2 km from airports.
According to IRNA, AT&T and Verizon are working to further develop communications with wider access to fifth-generation mid-band frequencies. But because aircraft use radio altimeters to detect their altitude, the U.S. Aviation Administration has warned pilots not to use the technology to land aircraft if some ground is not visible due to 5G internet interference at some airports.
