Transmission lines in the textile structure are a path of supplying power or transmitting digital/analog signals to electronic components in a textronic system. The current experimental investigation concerned potential differences in the signal transferring capability of textile transmission lines that were subjected to different pretreatment processes. In this study, 11 conductive yarns (stainless steel, silver plated PA and insulated copper) with different linear resistance values were used to create transmission lines through different weave patterns. E-fabric structures containing transmission lines were subjected to combined desizing, alkaline scouring and hydrogen peroxide bleaching pretreatment processes. Signal-to-noise measurements were performed before and after each pretreatment process. In order to make any reasonable comparison of the signal transferring capability of efabric samples, recorded signals were analysed using Matlab ® and their SNR values were also compared statistically. The results show that the pretreatment processes, the linear resistance of conductive yarns and the type of weave structure significantly influence the signal transferring capability of the transmission lines.

Linie transmisyjne w strukturze tekstylnej są ścieżką zasilania lub przesyłania sygnałów analogowych/cyfrowych do komponentów elektronicznych w tekstronice. Badania eksperymentalne dotyczą potencjalnych różnic w sprawności przenoszenia sygnału tekstylnych linii transmisyjnych, które zostały poddane różnym procesom obróbki wstępnej. W pracy zastosowano 11 przędz przewodzących o różnych wartościach oporu liniowego wykonanych ze stali nierdzewnej, posrebrzanego poliamidu i izolowanych drutów miedzianych. Przędze te wykorzystano do stworzenia linii transmisyjnych poprzez zastosowanie różnych splotów tkackich. Struktury tkanin zawierających linie transmisyjne poddano procesom: usuwania klejonki, obróbki alkalicznej i bielenia nadtlenkiem wodoru. Przed i po każdym procesie obróbki wstępnej dokonano pomiarów zakłóceń. W celu porównania sprawności przenoszenia sygnału zarejestrowane sygnały były analizowane i porównane statystycznie. Wyniki pokazują, że procesy obróbki wstępnej, opór liniowy przędz przewodzących oraz typ splotu mają istotny wpływ na sprawność przenoszenia sygnału tekstylnych linii transmisyjnych.
