  • Patent number: 11394095
    Abstract: To obtain a downsized dielectric filter suitable for a laminating structure, a dielectric filter is configured with use of a dielectric waveguide formed of a conductor pattern and vias in a laminating direction within a multilayer dielectric substrate, two strip lines formed in a planar direction of the multilayer dielectric substrate, and two strip line-waveguide converters each configured to perform transmission line conversion between the dielectric waveguide and each strip line. In this manner, it is possible to provide a dielectric filter for which an area to be occupied in the planar direction of the multilayer dielectric substrate is suppressed.

  • Patent number: 10930995
    Abstract: Provided is a power divider/combiner capable of improving reflection characteristics and isolation characteristics. The power divider/combiner is formed by a multilayer board, and a strip conductor is arranged in an inner layer of the multilayer board and a chip resistor is arranged on an outer surface of the multilayer board. The power divider/combiner includes vias, which connect the strip conductor and the chip resistor, and includes stubs mounted between input/output terminals and the vias. With this configuration, it is possible to adjust induction mainly during an odd mode of an even/odd mode operation and to consequently improve reflection characteristics of the input/output terminals and isolation characteristics between the input/output terminals.
