Abstract
Transmission measurements of 14 fabrics are presented in the millimeter-wave and submillimeter-wave electromagnetic regions from to . Three independent sources and experimental setups 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 setups along with their respective challenges are presented.
