  • Abstract
    The electromagnetic performance of a flexible knitted waveguide is examined. The waveguide is designed to operate in the X- band region and is manufactured by knitting a conducting yarn in the form of the sleeve. Measured data on transmission and return loss are presented and compared to simulated results.
