Abstract
A communication device includes an input port, a first output port, a second output port, a first output arm including one end connected to the first output port and another end connected to a branch point and including a first switching element configured to be shorted in a second mode, a second output arm including one end connected to the second output port and another end connected to the branch point and including a second switching element configured to be shorted in a first mode, and an input arm including one end connected to the input port and another end connected to the branch point and including a third switching element configured to introduce a discontinuity into a transmission line in the form of a matching element configured to change an impedance of the input arm in a divider mode.
