Abstract
The shielding effectiveness of two woven carbon fibre composite (CFC) materials has been calculated using plane wave shielding theory and effective medium theory. Both methods provide the same shielding result. Measurements of the shielding effectiveness using an X-band waveguide show similar levels of shielding to that of aluminium. The high shielding level is due to the large concentration of carbon in both composite samples (50.5%).
