AD 2023-10-02 was prompted by the determination that radio altimeters cannot be relied on to perform their intended function if they experience interference from wireless broadband operations in the 3.7-3.98 GHz frequency band 5G C-Band. This AD was prompted by the determination that this interference can also result in certain failure messages being inhibited longer than intended. This proposed AD would require installing a new radio frequency RF bandpass filter on the coaxial line between the radio altimeter and the receive antenna in the aft equipment compartment. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
