A conductive portion of a circuit body is formed by performing spraying on a surface of a resin casing. For spraying of the conductive portion, a cold spray method in which metal powder and inert gas are sprayed to an object is used. A circuit component is mounted on the conductive portion. Each terminal portion of the conductive portion is provided with a connector for connection with an external circuit body. An insulating resin is laminated on a surface of the conductive portion. The circuit body is directly formed on the surface of the resin casing by a series of processes described above.

Method of forming circuit body and circuit body

A waveguide includes a waveguide body which is hollow inside and made from a shape-retentive material, and a conductive inner coating layer which is electrically conductive and provided on an inner surface of the waveguide body. The waveguide uses an inner space of the conductive inner coating layer as a transmission path to transmit electromagnetic waves as signals. Two electric wires provided along the outer surface of the waveguide body serve respectively as a power line and a ground line to transmit electric power.
