A superconducting microstrip filter capable of achieving an improvement of
power resistance without enlarging the overall size and while maintaining
steep cut characteristics. This filter has a resonator section including
at least one resonator. This resonator forms a current density reduction
part in one part of its line pattern. Also, the filter has an input line
section arranged adjoining the resonator of an initial stage. Current
density reduction parts are formed in one part of this input line
section. Alternatively, the input line section is comprised of a normal
conductor.
