Since there's a lot of FUD going on here, I'm hoping I can clarify. This has nothing to do with 5g specifically, but rather a handful of channels in a specific band (of many possible 5g bands) that was newly auctioned. And the problem isn't technical, but rather political. This problem has been solved using existing techniques and regulations and tools in various countries. The political problem was that the FCC auctioned off the spectrum under the assumption that only half the licenses (the lower frequencies in the band), would have restrictions, and they would be lifted after a 3-year clearing period for satellite base stations to move to different bands. Now the FCC has realized that Landing instrument interference is going to be a problem, so they have to draft new regulatory restrictions. But this regulatory change is going to affect the market value of these licenses, and so the FCC is basically both preparing the new regulations (they are being modeled after similar regulations in Canada), as well as preparing to be sued by Verizon, and potentially AT&T, to try to recover some of the money they spent in the auction. The regulations are coming, but due to the politics and legal challenges, they're taking longer than expected. So the FAA is publishing their drafts as a PR strategy to force the FCC to hurry up and finalize the regulations. And it's working... I work in spectrum interference regulatory compliance, and we've been preparing for months for this rollout. Our software is already basically ready to deploy our compliance mechanisms within a days notice. All we need to do is a little bit of geospatial data entry on exclusion zones where transmission is not allowed. So we know that this nightmare scenario isn't gonna actually happen, but the threats have to happen in order to get the FCC to hurry the fuck up and finalize the regulations.
