Popis: This contribution describes the design, manufacturing and test of a printed reflectarray for a Ka-band terminal antenna. The reflectarray has been designed to produce a focused beam at 30 GHz (uplink) in V polarisation and also at 20 GHz (downlink) in H polarisation. Two separate feeds are used to illuminate the reflectarray for H (20 GHz) and V polarisation (30GHz). The reflectarray element is made of two stacked varying-sized patches, being one dimension adjusted to focus the beam at 20 GHz in H polarization, and the other to focus the 30 GHz beam in V-polarization. A breadboard has been manufactured and tested. The measured radiation patterns show very good agreement with those obtained from the simulations. A 10% bandwidth has been obtained in both frequency bands, with an antenna efficiency of 62% at 30 GHz and 70% at 20 GHz.
