In a low noise block downconverter converting a right-hand (or
horizontally) polarized wave signal and a left-hand (or vertically)
polarized wave signal to intermediate frequency signals, one of two
filters for removal of interference waves from the intermediate frequency
signals on the right-hand (or horizontally) polarized wave side and on
the left-hand (or vertically) polarized wave side is formed of a
plurality of stages of parallel resonant trap circuits having capacitors
and inductors connected in parallel, respectively, which exhibit
attenuation characteristic that is wideband and steep and allows great
attenuation in the reject band. Thus, it is possible to provide a low
noise block downconverter employing an LPF that achieves attenuation
characteristic being wideband and steep and allowing great attenuation in
the reject band with the least possible number of inductor components
that would otherwise increase the cost.
