American Lawmaker Reiterates Concerns about Potential for Aviation Interference Issues from 5G

By B.N. Frank

Opposition to 5G is increasing in the U.S. due to cybersecurity, safety, privacy, economic, health, and environmental risks (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15).

In regard to 5G for satellites, experts continue warning AGAINST launching more satellites for any purpose (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9).  Recently, a 5G satellite moratorium was implemented in South Africa due to interference issues.

Interference has been addressed in the U.S. before and it is now again. From Fierce Wireless:

Lawmaker raises alarm bells over 5.9 GHz, C-band

Concerns about the 5.9 GHz band came up again during a hearing of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, where U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg gave testimony on Thursday.

But that wasn’t all. The chair of the committee, Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Oregon, reiterated his concerns about potential interference from 5G in the C-band – the very band where the likes of Verizon and AT&T just pledged over $80 billion for access to airwaves for 5G. The spectrum currently is used by satellite companies that need to move to the upper part of the band in order to make room for 5G.

Generally speaking, DeFazio said there are two spectrum issues in play: one is ground-based and one is based in space.

Regarding the C-band, “unfortunately, it was auctioned, but we’re going to have be absolutely certain before it’s implemented [that] we’re not going to lose GPS and radio altimeters because someone wants to make money selling a service so people can see things more quickly on their cell phones,” he said near the start of the hearing, which covered a range of transportation issues.

DeFazio’s concerns about radar altimeters are not new, as aviation officials brought them to the attention of the FCC years ago.

Cities AND entire countries have taken action to ban, delay, halt, and limit 5G installation AS WELL AS issue moratoriums.  The majority of scientists worldwide oppose deployment.  Unfortunately, none of this has deterred the U.S. Military or other proponents from wanting to deploy this dangerous technology.

Americans opposed to 5G may sign this letter asking President Biden and Vice President Harris to stop deployment. Unfortunately, none of this has deterred the U.S. Military, The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), or other proponents from wanting to deploy this dangerous technology.
