BARCELONA—Despite the headlines and the hassles associated with the C-band, Ed Chan, SVP and chief technology officer at Verizon, had some kind words for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
“The FAA worked well with us along the way to kind of understand and do the testing,” he said on the sidelines of MWC 2023. “It went from a bit of fear mongering from some in the industry to a facts-based discussion.”Chan was referring to the protracted fight between the aviation industry and the wireless carriers, backed by the FCC, over the deployment of C-band spectrum for 5G.
