Five-G launch hits US: flights canceled


- Thousands of tourists stranded due to cancellation of numerous flights, outrage

- Airlines will have to incur huge losses due to cancellation of flights due to non-adjustment of Five-G sea-band at present.

NEW YORK: Thousands of tourists from several countries, including India, were shocked when thousands of flights were canceled due to the launch of Five-G service in the United States. From India, Air India canceled eight of its flights to the US. Apart from this, other international airlines and American airlines also had to cancel their flights.

Arun Kumar, head of the Indian aviation regulator DGCA, said they were working to resolve the issues raised by the launch of Five-G in the US. The cancellation of the flight thus turned the tide on the travel plans of thousands of tourists. The cancellation of the flight has dealt a major blow to the hopes of Indians living in Thanga to come to India as their families could not be reunited due to Corona's two years. Thus the chaos seen in hospitals during the Corona era in America is now seen at airports with flights being canceled. Many passengers are protesting against their airlines while airlines are blaming the failure on the aviation regulator Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

The US aviation regulator, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), said on January 19 that the Five-G could disrupt the aircraft's radio altimeter and prevent the engine and braking system from going into landing mode. This can make it difficult for the aircraft to land on the runway. The altimeter measures how high the plane is above the ground. Currently American Airlines, Delta Airlines and Air India operate flights between India and the US.

Apart from Air India, some other airlines have also canceled flights to the US. That includes the Emirates. It has canceled flights from Bost, Chicago, Dallas, Fortworth, Houston, Miami, Newark, Orlando, San Francisco, and Seattle.

Delta said telecom companies have agreed to make limited Five-G arrangements at some US airports. In addition it will delay the arrangement at some airports.

In addition, some other airlines are demanding that the US government delay the adjustment of C-band spectrum in the new Five-G connection. As long as it lands with increasing protection and safety so as not to affect the aircraft's altimeter. The radio altimeter is an important technological asset of the aircraft. It handles many functions. Based on this, the pilot can safely fly the airplane. Its usefulness increases during the critical stages of the flight. The CEOs of America's leading airlines have said that if the issue is not resolved soon, the transport front will be hit hard.

Telecom company disappointed with FAA's performance

Successful launch of Five-G in 40 countries, what's the problem in US?

Telecommunications company AT&T and Verizon have agreed not to launch Five-G at some airports as flights have been disrupted due to launch of Five-G in US Fell.

The telecom company expressed frustration over the performance of the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA), saying that if the governments of 20 countries could launch Five-G without any harm to their airlines, then why do we need such a situation.

These companies expressed frustration with the FAA's performance. "The FAA could have brought this matter to our attention before," the company said.

The problem is that Five G has a higher frequency range than Four G.

How does Five-G technology interfere with aviation?

- There is a risk of crashing as the important equipment of the aircraft is also working on the same frequency.

AT&T and Verizon's Sea Band Five G services have been launched in the US. Due to which a number of aircraft including 8 cannot be flown. The US government had auctioned off mid-range five G bandwidth mobile companies for ડો 50 billion in early 2021. The range in the spectrum from 7.5 to 7.5 GHz is called sea band. Now the problem is that even the most important devices used in the flight of aircraft operate in the range of 7.5 to 7.5 GHz. Optimizers used for automated landing operate in the range of 7.5 to 7.5 GHz. These devices are likely to be lost as the range of Five G and the range of this device is very close.

Against this, telecom companies say that the higher the frequency in the spectrum, the faster the internet service gets. Verizon and AT&T argue that there is no problem with C-band Five G services being used in 20 other countries. The two companies have agreed to create buffer zones at about 50 US airports.

However, the argument of telecom companies is misleading. Because the standard of Five G is different elsewhere. In the standards set in Europe in 2016, the range of mid-range five genes has been fixed at 7.5 to 7.5 GHz, so there is no problem at the airports of 6 countries in Europe. Five G frequencies are also set in South Korea at 6.5 to 7.5 GHz.

FiveG operates on the same frequency in France. In the US, the frequency is set at 6.5 to 7.5 GHz, and in France, the power level set for the Five G is lower than the US-allocated power level. Verizon said it would not use higher band frequencies for many years, but the airlines did not agree.
