Zusammenfassung:A directional coupler includes a main line, a sub-line electromagnetically coupled with the main line, a coupled output terminal, plural filters, filter switching circuits, and plural filter protecting switches. Each of the filter switching circuits is able to connect a corresponding one of the plural filters to one end of the sub-line and to the coupled output terminal. Each of the filter protecting switches is directly connected to a corresponding end of a corresponding one of the plural filters and is able to switch between a connection state and a disconnection state. The connection state is a state in which the corresponding end of the corresponding one of the plural filters is connected to a reference potential. The disconnection state is a state in which the corresponding end of the corresponding one of the plural filters is disconnected from the reference potential.
