title: Millimeter- and submillimeter-wave characterization of various fabrics.
abstract: Transmission measurements of 14 fabrics are presented in the millimeter-wave and submillimeter-wave electromagnetic regions from 130 GHz to 1.2 THz. Three independent sources and experimental set-ups were used to obtain accurate results over a wide spectral range. Reflectivity, a useful parameter for imaging applications, was also measured for a subset of samples in the submillimeter-wave regime along with polarization sensitivity of the transmitted beam and transmission through doubled layers. All of the measurements were performed in free space. Details of these experimental set-ups along with their respective challenges are presented.
