Abstract
A ladder type acoustic wave filter is disclosed. The acoustic wave filter can include a plurality of parallel arm resonators and a plurality of series arm resonators, in which an electromechanical coupling coefficient of a parallel arm resonator closest to an input node of the acoustic wave filter among the plurality of parallel arm resonators can be smaller than an electromechanical coupling coefficient of a series arm resonator closest to the input node among the plurality of series arm resonators.
