## Detailed Description

### template<class Interpolator1D>
class QuantLib::KInterpolatedYoYOptionletVolatilitySurface< Interpolator1D >

K-interpolated YoY optionlet volatility.

The stripper provides curves in the T direction along each K. We don't know whether this is interpolating or fitting in the T direction. Our K direction interpolations are not model fitting.

An alternative design would be a FittedYoYOptionletVolatilitySurface taking a model, e.g. SABR in the interest rate world. This could use the same stripping in the T direction along each K.

Bug:
  Tests currently fail.

## Member Function Documentation

Volatility volatilityImpl | ( | Time | length,
|  | Rate | strike
| ) |  | const`[protected, virtual]`

Implements the actual volatility surface calculation in derived classes e.g. bilinear interpolation. N.B. does not derive the surface.

Implements YoYOptionletVolatilitySurface.
