Ilandela i-SpaceX, i-Facebook ne-OneWEB, i-Amazon ijoyina ulayini walabo abafisa ukuhlinzeka nge-inthanethi kubantu abaningi bomhlaba kusetshenziswa umlaza wamasathelayithi anemizila ephansi kanye nokugcwala okugcwele kwendawo yonke yomhlaba ngesignali yabo.
Emuva ngoSepthemba wonyaka odlule, kwavela izindaba ku-inthanethi zokuthi i-Amazon ihlela “iphrojekthi yendawo enkulu nenesibindi.” Umlayezo ohambisanayo uye waqashelwa abasebenzisi be-inthanethi abanakekile esikhangisweni esivele futhi sacishe sasuswa ngokushesha mayelana nokuseshwa konjiniyela abanekhono kulo mkhakha kuwebhusayithi ethi www.amazon.jobs, ngesisekelo lapho umdondoshiya we-Intanethi acinga futhi aqashe abasha. abasebenzi. Ngokusobala, le phrojekthi yayisho "Iphrojekthi Kuiper," esanda kwaziwa emphakathini.
Isinyathelo sokuqala somphakathi sase-Amazon ngaphansi kwe-Project Kuiper kwaba ukuthunyelwa kwezicelo ezintathu ku-International Telecommunication Union (ITU) nge-US Federal Communications Commission futhi egameni le-Kuiper Systems LLC. Imibhalo ihlanganisa uhlelo lokusathela amasathelayithi angu-3236 endaweni ephansi yomhlaba, okuhlanganisa namasathelayithi angama-784 endaweni ephakeme ngamakhilomitha angama-590, amasathelayithi ayi-1296 endaweni ephakeme ngamakhilomitha angama-610, kanye namasathelayithi ayi-1156 endaweni ephakeme ngamakhilomitha angama-630.
Ephendula isicelo esivela kwaGeekWire, i-Amazon ikuqinisekisile ukuthi iKuiper Systems empeleni ingenye yamaphrojekthi ayo.
"I-Project Kuiper iwuhlelo lwethu olusha lokwethula iqoqo lezinkanyezi le-low-Earth orbit satellites elizoletha ukuxhumana kwe-broadband okunesivinini esikhulu, ne-low-latency broadband emiphakathini enganakiwe futhi enganakiwe emhlabeni jikelele," kusho umkhulumeli we-Amazon ku-imeyili. “Lona wumsebenzi wesikhathi eside ozosiza amashumi ezigidi zabantu abangenayo i-inthanethi eyisisekelo. Sibheke ngabomvu ukubambisana kulo msebenzi nezinye izinkampani ezihambisana nezinhloso zethu.”
Ummeleli wenkampani uphinde wathi iqembu labo lizokwazi ukuhlinzeka nge-inthanethi ebusweni boMhlaba ebangeni le-latitude ukusuka kumadigri angu-56 enyakatho kuya ku-56 degrees eningizimu ye-latitude, ngaleyo ndlela ihlanganise u-95% wabantu beplanethi.
Inhlangano Yezizwe Ezihlangene ilinganisela ukuthi cishe abantu abayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezine emhlabeni wonke abasikekelwe kahle, okuyinto egcina ibalulekile njengoba ukuhwebelana kwembulunga yonke kukhukhula umhlaba wonke futhi ulwazi luba insiza nempahla ebalulekile.
Izinkampani eziningi ezaziwayo, njenge-Amazon, ziye zathatha izinyathelo ezifanayo esikhathini esidlule futhi zisebenza kulokhu.
- Ngonyaka odlule, i-SpaceX yethula amasathelayithi amabili okuqala e-prototype yephrojekthi yayo ye-inthanethi ye-Starlink satellite. Le nkampani ilindele ukuthi umlaza wamasathelayithi ukhule ufinyelele ezimotweni ezingaphezu kuka-12 ku-Earth orbit. Amasathelayithi azokhiqizwa embonini ye-SpaceX eRedmond, eWashington. Umsunguli weBillionaire SpaceX u-Elon Musk ulindele ukuthi ukutshalwa kwezimali kwakhe kuphrojekthi ye-Starlink kukhokhele ngokugcwele futhi, ngaphezu kwalokho, ukusiza ukuxhasa iphupho lakhe ledolobha eliku-Mars.
- I-OneWeb yethule amasathelayithi ayo okuxhumana ayisithupha okuqala ngoFebhuwari walo nyaka futhi ihlela ukwethula amakhulu engeziwe onyakeni noma emibili ezayo. Ngenyanga edlule, umfelandawonye umemezele ukuthi uthole utshalomali olukhulu lwezigidigidi eziyi-1,25 zamarandi eqenjini lezinkampani zeSoftBank.
- I-Telesat yethula isibonelo sayo sokuqala sesathelayithi yezokuxhumana ezungeza i-Earth ngo-2018 futhi ihlela ukwethula amakhulukhulu ukuze ahlinzeke ngezinsizakalo ze-broadband zesizukulwane sokuqala ekuqaleni kwawo-2020.
Ukufinyelela ku-inthanethi sekungatholakala kakade ngamasathelayithi aku-geostationary orbit, isibonelo, kusetshenziswa izinsiza zezinkampani ezifana ne-Viasat ne-Hughes. Kodwa-ke, naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi ama-satellites okuxhumana e-geostationary orbit alula kakhulu ukusetshenziswa, ngoba ahlala esendaweni efanayo ehlobene noMhlaba futhi anendawo enkulu yokumboza (ngesathelayithi eyi-1 cishe ngama-42% omhlaba), futhi ibe nokubambezeleka kwesignali yesikhathi esiphezulu kakhulu ngenxa yebanga elikhulu (ubuncane obungu-35 km) ukuya kumasathelayithi kanye nezindleko eziphezulu zokuwaqalisa. Amasathelayithi e-LEO kulindeleke ukuthi abe nenzuzo kukho kokubili ukubambezeleka kanye nezindleko zokuqalisa.
Ezinye izinkampani zizama ukuthola indawo emaphakathi emjahweni wesathelayithi. Enye yazo i-SES Networks, ehlela ukwethula ama-satellite e-O3b amane ku-orbit ye-Medium-Earth ukuze kwandiswe indawo yokumboza izinsizakalo zayo ngenkathi kunciphisa ukubambezeleka kwesignali yesathelayithi.
I-Amazon ayikanikezi imininingwane mayelana nokuqala kokuthunyelwa komlaza wesathelayithi we-Project Kuiper. Alukho futhi ulwazi mayelana nokuthi kuzobiza malini ukufinyelela nokuxhuma kumasevisi omhlinzeki wesikhathi esizayo. Okwamanje, kuphephile ukucabanga ukuthi igama lekhodi lephrojekthi, elihlonipha usosayensi weplanethi ongasekho uGerard Kuiper kanye neqhwa elikhulu i-Kuiper Belt eliqanjwe ngaye, mancane amathuba okuthi lihlale liyigama elisebenzayo lale sevisi uma seyethuliwe ngokwentengiso. Kungenzeka ukuthi insizakalo izothola igama elihlotshaniswa nohlobo lwe-Amazon, ngokwesibonelo, i-Amazon Web Services.
Ngemva kokufaka isicelo ne-International Telecommunication Union, isinyathelo esilandelayo se-Amazon kuzoba ukufaka ku-FCC nabanye abalawuli. Inqubo yokugunyazwa ingase ithathe isikhathi eside njengoba abalawuli kudingeka bahlole ukuthi ingabe umlaza we-Amazon uzophazamisa imilaza yesathelayithi ekhona nezayo, nokuthi i-Amazon inalo yini ikhono lobuchwepheshe lokuqinisekisa ukuthi amasathelayithi ayo ngeke abeke ukuphila engozini noma ahlakazeke uma ewela emhlabeni. emfucumfucwini yasemkhathini eyingozi kwezinye izinto ze-orbital.
Okwamanje akwaziwa ukuthi ubani ozokhiqiza amasathelayithi amasha nokuthi ubani ozowafaka ku-orbit. Kodwa, okungenani, uma kubhekwa imali ye-Amazon eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-900, akungabazeki ukuthi bangakwazi ukukhokhela le phrojekthi. Futhi, ungakhohlwa ukuthi uJeff Bezos, umnikazi nomongameli we-Amazon, ungumnikazi weBlue Origin, ezakhela eyakhe i-New Glenn orbital class rocket. I-OneWeb kanye ne-Telesat, esiyishilo, isivele iphendukele ezinsizeni zenkampani ukuze iqalise amasathelayithi okuxhumana abe yi-orbit ephansi. Ngakho-ke i-Amazon inezinsiza eziningi nolwazi. Singalinda kuphela ukubona ukuthi yini eza kuyo nokuthi ubani ozogcina ephumelele umjaho wokuba umhlinzeki we-inthanethi wesathelayithi yeplanethi.
