Abstract
Influence of mechanical factors onto conductivity of the conductive yarn is studied. Several microstrip lines with various thread tensions are manufactured and compared in performance, to propose the strategy for efficient design and implementation of conductive textiles. After washing the lines few times it was found that the conductivity vanishes.
