A dielectric antenna duplexer used in a high frequency radio device such as
a portable telephone, and a dielectric filter for forming the duplexer of
the SIR (stepped impedance resonator) composed by cascade connection of
first transmission lines having one end grounded and second transmission
lines having one end open and lower in characteristic impedance than in
the first transmission lines, first transmission lines and second
transmission lines are individually coupled in electromagnetic field,
thereby forming an antenna duplexer and a dielectric filter of small
insertion loss, high bandwidth selectivity, excellent band pass
characteristic, and low cost.
