Abstract

An antenna-oriented reflecting material using triaxial woven fabric is usable for frequency bands as high as 20-60 GHz. A reflecting material 1 usable for the high frequency bands is manufactured without spoiling advantages of triaxial woven fabric 2 by controlling mainly a construction n, a volume resistivity .rho. and a mass per unit length .eta. of the triaxial woven fabric. Particularly the setting of each parameter is determined by a composite model reflection ratio .GAMMA. obtained from a sum of a first reflection ratio .GAMMA.'s based on a surface resistance of the triaxial woven fabric and a second reflection ratio .GAMMA.p based on opening, holes of the triaxial woven fabric. It is preferable that a construction be 5-28 yards/in a mass per unit length .eta. be 10-460 tex g/1000 m, and a volume resistivity .rho. be 0.7 to 2.0.times.10.sup.-3 .OMEGA..multidot.cm.
