WASHINGTON : AT&T and Verizon Communications on Wednesday agreed to adopt new precautionary measures to address air safety concerns raised from the planned use of C-Band spectrum for 5G wireless.

AT&T and Verizon said they had committed for six months to take"additional steps to minimize energy coming from 5G base stations–both nationwide and to an even greater degree around public airports and heliports" and said that should address"concerns about radio altimeter performance." It is not yet clear if the measures are enough to address the concerns of the FAA, which did not immediately comment.

AT&T said it was adopting the measures"while additional evidence from radio altimeter manufacturers is evaluated. Though there is no credible evidence that a legitimate interference problem exists, we agreed to take these additional steps to alleviate any safety concerns from the FAA."
