Adam Kos Ngisho nangaphambi kokwethulwa kwe-iPhone 13, kusabalale amahemuhemu emhlabeni wonke okuthi lesi sizukulwane samafoni akwa-Apple sizokwazi ukushaya izingcingo futhi sithumele imiyalezo ngamasathelayithi, okusho ukuthi ngeke kudingeke ukuthi basebenzise kuphela amanethiwekhi angenawaya e-Wi-Fi namanethiwekhi o-opharetha. lokhu. Nokho, kusukela lapho bekuthulekile endleleni yezinyawo. Ngakho-ke yini esiyaziyo ngosekelo lokushaya ngesathelayithi kuma-iPhone, futhi ingabe sizosibona lesi sici esikhathini esizayo?
Umhlaziyi odumile uMing-Chi Kuo ube ngowokuqala ukuqhamuka nalokhu, futhi imininingwane yakhe yasekelwa yisikhungo seBloomberg. Ngakho-ke kubukeke njengesivumelwano esenziwe, nokho asizwanga zwi ngakho lapho kwethulwa i-iPhone 13. Ukuxhumana ngesathelayithi kufanekiselwa isifinyezo esithi LEO, esimele i-low-Earth orbit. Kodwa-ke, ihloselwe kakhulu abasebenzisi abangaphandle kwenethiwekhi evamile, abahambi abasebenzisa amafoni athile asethelayithi kulokhu (impela uyayazi leyo mishini enama-antenna amakhulu avela kumamuvi ahlukahlukene okusinda). Manje kungani i-Apple ingafuna ukuncintisana nale mishini?
Igalari yezithombe
Ukusebenza okulinganiselwe kuphela
I-Podle imibiko yokuqala, eyafika ekupheleni kuka-Agasti nyakenye, empeleni bekungeke kube ukuncintisana kanjalo. Ama-iPhone azosebenzisa le nethiwekhi kuphela kumakholi aphuthumayo nokuthumela umbhalo. Empeleni, lokhu kungasho ukuthi uma uphukelwe umkhumbi olwandle oluphakeme, ulahlekile ezintabeni lapho kungekho ngisho nomugqa wesiginali, noma uma inhlekelele yemvelo ibangele umshini wokudlulisa ukungasebenzi kahle, ungasebenzisa i-iPhone yakho ukucela usizo nge inethiwekhi yesathelayithi. Ngokuqinisekile ngeke kufane nokubiza umngane uma engafuni ukuphuma nawe kusihlwa. Iqiniso lokuthi i-Apple ayifikanga nalokhu kusebenza nge-iPhone 13 akusho ukuthi ngeke besakwazi ukwenza lokhu. Izingcingo zesathelayithi nazo zisekelwe kwisofthiwe, futhi i-Apple, uma isilungile, ingayisebenzisa nganoma yisiphi isikhathi.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Ukundiza emhlabeni wonke nge-Apple Imayelana namasathelayithi
Uthenga iselula futhi ngokuvamile ungayisebenzisa nanoma yimuphi u-opharetha (ngemikhawulo ethile yemakethe kuleyo ndawo kunjalo). Kodwa-ke, amafoni wesathelayithi aboshelwe enkampanini ethile yesathelayithi. Emikhulu kunayo yonke i-Iridium, i-Inmarsat ne-Globalstar. Ngayinye iphinde inikeze ukufakwa okuhlukile ngokwenani lamasathelayithi ayo. Isibonelo, i-Iridium inamasathelayithi angama-75 endaweni ephakeme ye-780 km, i-Globalstar inamasathelayithi angama-48 endaweni eyi-1 km.
I-Starlink
UMing-Chi Kuo uthe ama-iPhones kufanele asebenzise izinsiza zeGlobalstar, ehlanganisa ingxenye enkulu yomhlaba, okuhlanganisa iNyakatho neNingizimu Melika, iYurophu, iNyakatho ye-Asia, iKorea, iJapan, izingxenye zeRussia kanye nayo yonke i-Australia. Kodwa i-Afrika neNingizimu-mpumalanga ye-Asia azikho, njengoba kunjalo nengxenye enkulu yeNyakatho Nenkabazwe. Izinga lokuxhuma kwe-iPhone kumasathelayithi nalo liwumbuzo, ngoba vele alukho i-antenna yangaphandle. Nokho, lokhu kungaxazululwa ngezesekeli.
Isivinini sedatha sihamba kancane ngokudabukisayo ekuxhumaneni okunjalo ngesathelayithi, ngakho-ke ungathembeli ekufundeni okunamathiselwe kwi-imeyili. Lokhu empeleni ngokuyinhloko mayelana nokuxhumana okulula. Isib. ifoni yesathelayithi ye-Globalstar GSP-1700 inikeza isivinini esingu-9,6 kbps, okuyenza ibe kancane kunokuxhumana kokudayela.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
U-Vratislav Holub Ukukusebenzisa
Izingcingo zesathelayithi ziyabiza ngoba ubuchwepheshe obumba eqolo. Kodwa uma izosindisa impilo yakho, akunandaba ukuthi ukhokha malini ngocingo. Kodwa-ke, endabeni yama-iPhones, kuzoncika ekutheni opharetha ngokwabo bazobhekana kanjani nalokhu. Kuzodingeka benze amanani akhethekile. Futhi njengoba lokhu kuwumsebenzi olinganiselwe kakhulu, umbuzo uwukuthi ngabe uzosakazekela ezifundeni zethu.
Kepha wonke umbono unamandla, futhi ungacindezela ukusebenziseka kwamadivayisi we-Apple ezingeni elilandelayo. Okuhlobene nalokhu ukuthi ngabe i-Apple ekugcineni izokwethula amasathelayithi ayo ku-orbit futhi, ngemuva kwakho konke, ukuthi ngeke yini futhi inikeze izintela zayo. Kodwa sesivele sisemanzini okuqagela futhi ngokuqinisekile esikhathini esizayo esikude.
