Using three types of yarns with metal filaments, textile samples with various arrangements of yarns were made and additionally coated with polyurethane and graphite layer. The aim of the study is to identify the metal filaments fabrics with the highest shielding effectiveness (SE) and influence of graphite layer on it, using a waveguide method and network analyzer with radiated frequency from 2.6-3.6 GHz. Layer of graphite improves the SE properties, although, some uncoated samples have higher SE for definite frequencies.
