Abstract:
An image rejection filter comprising a waveguide-type 90-degree hybrid coupler having an input port for receiving an input signal within a millimeter or submillimeter band, first and second output ports for dividing the input signal in two and outputting the divided signals, respectively, wherein the one signal deviates by a 90-degree phase from the other signal, and a branch port for outputting the signal; a pair of band pass filters: a waveguide-type first band pass filter whose one end is connected with the first output port and a waveguide-type second band pass filter whose one end is connected with the second output port; and a pair of radiowave absorptive terminations: a first radiowave absorptive termination connected to the other end of the first band pass filter and a second radiowave absorptive termination connected to the other end of the second band pass filter.
