| Abstract(in English) | Surface resistivity of conductive textiles is measured in a microwave frequency range. The sample textiles consist of conductive threads and silk, and have no metallic wires or filaments. The conductive threads used in this study are traditional ones which have been used in decoration in clothing for hundred years. A half-wavelength microstrip line resonator is used for the measurement and the resonant frequency is around 2.6GHz. From the frequency responses, the Q factors are measured for a copper strip line and for the strip of sample textile. Difference of Q factors in the two cases leads to the relationship between the surface resistances of the sample and a copper sheet. Several samples are prepared; the used metals are copper and aluminum, weaving types are twill and plain weave, bundling types of the threads are double and single, and some different densities of the conductive threads. These conductive textiles using a traditional technology are expected to use in wearable electrical systems. |
