Abstract

Previously, we proposed a knitted textile waveguide working at X-band. Such wearable devices will experience various environmental conditions such as getting wet when applied in practice. In this paper, we have investigated the impact of moisture on the performance of a knitted textile waveguide. The results show that moisture has significant influences on the knitted waveguide's performance. Therefore, the knitted waveguide needs to be water-proofed properly in real-life applications.
