Federal regulators will allow telecom giants AT&T and Verizon to station more 5G towers closer to airports after additional safety tests found that they do not interfere with sensitive aircraft instruments.In recent months, AT&T and Verizon had bowed to pressure to delay their rollout of 5G antennas near airports due to concerns that they pose a safety risk to aircraft.But now, the Federal Aviation Administration said that the wireless companies will be allowed to deploy more towers after it determined that “it is possible to safely and more precisely map the size and shape of the areas around airports where 5G signals are mitigated, shrinking the areas where wireless operators are deferring their antenna activations.”
