The complex permittivity and permeability of composites filled with Fe-based microwires are measured in a coaxial line at frequencies from 0.01 to 10 GHz.The samples under study consist of closely packed wire sections with various orientations relative to wave vector. The composites, where the wires are collinear to the coaxial axis, are found to be low permeable. Their permittivity has frequency dispersion governed by the length of the wire and its linear impedance. The middle section of the wire has higher impedance than that of the end sections where the regular domain structure is distorted. Magnetic bias parallel to the wire axis affects the linear impedance and parameters of dielectric absorption of a composite, the effect is proportional to bias strength. The samples of a coil-type structure, where the wires are wound around the coaxial axis, display the intensive magnetic absorption attributed to the domain wall motion. The absorption takes place in the megahertz band, at microwaves the permeability is close to unity. The microwave properties of diluted composites filled with randomly oriented permeable wires are discussed.
