Kusele amasonto ambalwa nje sazi izindaba ze- idivayisi entsha yeselula ye-apula elikhulu: i-iPhone 13. Emasontweni ambalwa ngemuva kokwethulwa kwayo, amahemuhemu, imibiko kanye nokuhlaziywa kusathulwa okusikisela izinguquko ezintsha ezingathinta ingaphakathi nengaphandle le-terminal. Emahoreni ambalwa adlule, umhlaziyi uMing Chi-Kuo wakhipha omunye umbiko lapho aphawula khona ngokuthi kungenzeka lokho Ubuchwepheshe bokuxhumana besethelayithi obusezingeni eliphansi (i-LEO) buzofika ku-iPhone 13 ukubiza nokuthumela imiyalezo ngaphandle kokutholakala kweselula, ukusebenzisa la masathelayithi esikhundleni sezimpondo zomhlaba.
Ubuchwepheshe besethelayithi obunamasathelayithi aphansi we-orbit (LEO) eza ku-iPhone 13
Ku-2019, eminye imithombo yezindaba yananela ucwaningo lwe-Apple kubuchwepheshe besathelayithi lokunikeza ukuxhumana nokushayela imininingwane kuma-iPhones. Kodwa-ke, kusukela lapho akukaze kube khona imininingwane ngakho kuze kube manje. UKuo embikweni wakhe wakamuva uyakuqinisekisa lokho Ubuchwepheshe bokuxhumana besethelayithi be-Low-orbit (LEO) buyeza ku-iPhone 13.
Lezi ziphuphutheki ezisezingeni eliphansi (LEO) zitholakala phakathi kwamakhilomitha angama-160 kanye no-2000 ukuphakama. Kunenqwaba yamasathelayithi endiza ngale ndawo futhi enza imisebenzi eminingi. Phakathi kwazo kukhona izingcingo noma imiyalezo ngaphandle kwesidingo sesiginali ngezimpondo zomhlaba. Lezi ziphuphutheki ze-orbit ezisezingeni eliphansi nikezela ngemigqa engaphansi kwama-30 ms, ngokumbozwa okungafika kuma-100 Mbps. Uma sihlaziya le datha naleyo enikezwa ngama-satellite geostationary, siyabona ukuthi angcono futhi lapho izinkampani zokuxhumana bezilokhu zitshala imali eminyakeni yamuva.
Kunokungabaza okuningi ngokusetshenziswa i-Apple engakunikeza kulokhu kuxhumana nama-satellite e-LEO. Kodwa-ke, kulindeleke ukuthi kube yisikhathi sokushintsha kweminye imikhiqizo yesikhathi esizayo njenge-Apple Car noma izibuko zangempela ezingathandwa kwabathelisi esikubona. Kepha ucingo olusondele kakhulu kithi nolunamathuba amaningi okuthi luhambisane nalobu buchwepheshe yi-iPhone 13.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-iPhone 13 izoba ne-chip yangokwezifiso yeQualcomm X60 engavumela lokhu kuxhumana kwesathelayithi. Akukaziwa ukuthi i-Apple izokhawulela ukufinyelela kwalobu buchwepheshe besathelayithi ezinsizakalweni zayo njenge-FaceTime noma i-iMessages noma uma le sevisi ingaba nezindleko ezengeziwe kumsebenzisi.
