Transmission demonstration experiment of 0.1-0.2 THz beam was performed with transmission system consisted of polymer fibers of 3 mm 300 mmL coated with gold metal. THz beam was generated by high power compact gyrotron designed output power of 0.25 kW and measured output power at terminal of metallic cladding polymer fibers in the transmission system and the following results were derived. (1) It was demonstrated that maximum output power of the order of 0.84 W through the polymer fibers was observed by SBD detector at input power of the order of 7.5 W.
