[1st-mile-nm] 5g: government troubles

[Doug Orr]

-1st-mile to BCC

The issue the report highlights is that the rest of the world is planning
on using frequencies we currently reserve for "government" (which I assume
mostly means military). We would have to do some fabulously expensive
retooling to get clear of the sub-6 frequencies to free them up for 5g.

So, Humvees crossing borders would be more the issue.

Imo, it's unlikely that 5g super fast speeds will have that much of a part
to play in autonomous vehicles (they need to be... autonomous), because of
jamming and reliability issues, plus needing pervasive, fabulously
expensive antenna deployment required (and I know others here differ :).
But worst case scenario, I suspect there could probably be some kind of
accommodation if they need to behave differently in different parts of the
world.
