'Aircraft will not be able to rely on radio altimeters for numerous flight procedures and thus will not be able to land at certain airports,' the A4A said in its filing. 5 carrier rollout, the group identified more than 135 airports where it wanted to delay 5G deployment, including major cities such as New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. In its petition just days before the expected Jan. But A4A said on Thursday that issues remained unresolved.

22 from CTIA, the wireless industry trade group A4A and the Aerospace Industries Association. The group argued in its filing that the FCC did not provide 'reasoned analysis of why it has rejected the evidence submitted by the aviation interests.'ДЄ4A had been working with technical experts in the wireless and aviation industry to come up with a solution, according to a joint statement dated Dec.

30 asking the agency to delay the carriers' use of the C-band spectrum. The group had filed a petition with the FCC on Jan. The news of the delay came as the airline industry's trade group Airlines for America, or A4A, was preparing a lawsuit in federal court to stop AT&T and Verizon from deploying their 5G service using the C-band spectrum. Over the weekend, the companies agreed to make these voluntary pledges binding, agreeing to allow the FCC to impose penalties if they don't fulfill their promises. Prior to agreeing to the delay, the carriers offered to create special exclusion zones around airports where it wouldn't deploy C-Band 5G for six months. 5 to give the industry more time to adapt, Buttigieg and the FAA requested another delay right before the deadline, which Verizon and AT&T initially rejected.Д¬arriers proposed safety measures in November to ensure cell towers don't interfere with aircraft signals, including lowering tower power levels nationwide with even stricter limits around airports and helipads. While carriers pledged in December to wait 30 days until Jan. The carriers had won FCC auctions to use frequencies from 3.7 to 3.98GHz to use for their upgraded 5G service, but the aviation industry argued those radio airwaves may interact with instruments like altimeters that use the 4.2 to 4.4GHz ranges. He thanked all parties involved in the negotiations to 'discuss a solution that allows the expansion of 5G and aviation to safely co-exist.' The White House was instrumental in bringing together technical experts from the FAA, FCC and the wireless and aviation industries to come up with a solution, Biden said. 'This agreement ensures that there will be no disruptions to air operations over the next two weeks and puts us on track to substantially reduce disruptions to air operations when AT&T and Verizon launch 5G on January 19th.' 'Last night's agreement is a significant step in the right direction, and we're grateful to all parties for their cooperation and good faith,' he said. On Tuesday, President Joe Biden weighed in on the agreement, calling it a 'significant step in the right direction.' He also cited his administration's commitment to 'rapid 5G deployment,' while also trying to 'maintain the world's safest airspace.' It's unclear what actions will be taken in the two-week period to address these concerns from the FAA and aviation industry. The aviation industry had been pressuring the carriers to delay their C-band 5G service to ensure signal emissions wouldn't impact instruments crucial for midflight navigation. The about-face staves off a legal clash pitting the FAA, the aviation industry and Transportation Department on one side, and the carriers and the Federal Communications Commission, which signed off on the use of the airwaves.
