  • Abstract
    This paper presents the performance of a knitted textile waveguide under different bending conditions. The waveguide is designed to operate at X-band and consists of a textile sleeve and knitted polyester inside. S21 of the bent knitted waveguide is compared to that of the straight knitted waveguide in both simulation and measurement.
