While 5G was hyped for consumer applications like autonomous vehicles and remote surgery, its true impact has been in public safety and national security. The technology has become the backbone for first responders, enabling reliable communication and coordination, a stark contrast to the failures seen during the 9/11 attacks. Looking ahead, 5G and future 6G networks offer the potential to provide resilient positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) services, which could bolster national security and create new economic opportunities similar to those enabled by GPS.
