Abstract
In accordance with the present invention there is provided a bandpass T filter and power splitter for electromagnetic energy. It is composed of a plurality of resonant elements serially arranged to form a plurality of forward multi-pole bandpass filters. At least one resonant element is common to both signal paths. The common resonant element transfers energy from the common path to the independent signal paths to effect a power split. The two signal output paths are isolated from one another by a multi-pole bandpass filter. The resonant elements may be composed of either resonant waveguide cavities or dielectric resonators.
