Does iPhone support Modal overlays?

Some touch phones-like the iPhone-do not provide an API (Application Programming Interface) for modal overlays, but instead deliver content one screen at a time, with transitions between screens. On such devices, you'll need to fake modal overlays. You can achieve this effect by rendering the same search results on a new screen-this time with a slightly darkened background-with a modal overlay over the results. When displaying this new screen, an application should minimize any transition to help to preserve the illusion of maintaining the search results context.


What is the difference between step index and graded index optical fiber?

1. Step index fiber is of two types viz; mono mode fiber and multi mode fiber. Graded index fiber is of only of one type that is multi mode fiber. 2. The refractive index of the core of the step index fiber is constant through out the core. The refractive index of the core of the graded index fiber is maximum at the center of the core and then it decreases towards core-cladding interface. 3. Number of modes for step index fiber N = V2/2, where V is cut off frequency or normalized frequency or V- number Number of modes for graded index fiber is N = V2/ 4. 4. V number can be less that 2.405 or more that 2.405 for step index fiber V number is always more than 2.405 for graded index fiber. 5. Step Index Fiber is a fiber in which the core is of a uniform refractive index and there is a sharp decrease in the index of refraction at the cladding. Graded Index Fiber is a type of fiber where the refractive index of the core is lower toward the outside of the fiber. It bends the rays inward and also allows them to travel faster in the lower index of refraction region. This type of fiber provides high bandwidth capabilities.

Why modal dispersion limits the fiber bandwidth?

In a multimode fiber modal dispersion causes each mode to have a different velocity and reach to the end of the fiber at a different time. This will cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) which means that we need to send data at lower rates in order to prevent ISI. Lower rates means a reduction in bandwidth.

What is Modal fiber What is the characteristic?

Here is what it says on the Wiki page:"Modal is a bio-based fiber made by spinning reconstituted cellulose from beech trees. It is about 50% more hygroscopic, or water-absorbent, per unit volume than cotton is. It is designed to dye just like cotton, and is color-fast when washed in warm water. Modal is essentially a variety of rayon[1]."See:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_(textile)


What is an example of a cellulose fiber?

An example of a cellulose fiber is cotton. Cotton is often used in textiles and clothing due to its softness, breathability, and absorbency. It is a natural fiber derived from the cotton plant's seed pods.
