The FAA, Verizon, and AT&T have figured out how to allow the wireless carriers to deploy some of their C-band 5G networks near airports.

and AT&T that will allow the carriers to use more of their C-band spectrum near airports. These signals are important to Verizon and AT&T because they are in the mid-band which runs from 3.7 GHz-4.0 GHz.Mid-band signals are just what U.S. carriers need to finish building out their 5G networks. That's because they travel farther than mmWave, aren't blocked by structures like mmWave, and can reach more customers than mmWave.

Over the last week or so, Verizon and AT&T released more specific information to the FAA including the location of their wireless transmitters while also sending data that included a more"thorough analysis of how 5G C-band signals interact with sensitive aircraft instruments." "This will enable the wireless providers to safely turn on more towers as they deploy new 5G service in major markets across the United States," the spokesman added. The deal made earlier this month between the FAA, Verizon, andrequired that the latter two carriers refrain from turning on 500 towers located near airports which works out to less than 10% of the firm's 5G towers.

Verizon's C-band service covers more than 100 million people in 1,700-plus cities around the nation. AT&T is taking a slower approach with the service available in only eight metro areas in the U.S. Even if you're a Verizon or AT&T customer in the middle of an area where their new C-band 5G signals are available, you must have a device that supports 5G and the specific C-band frequencies.
