Dielectric filter, dielectric duplexer, and communication apparatus

摘要

A dielectric block includes a plurality of plated through holes each having an inner conductor formed thereon to form respective plated through holes. At least one of the plated through holes branches into two legs at the short circuit side thereof so that the two legs are close to the short circuit side of the plated through holes adjacent thereto. This allows the resonators formed of the plated through holes to be strongly inductively coupled with each other.
