A reflectarray with independent dual-circular polarizations is proposed for the first time. The reflector panel operates in X-band and contains 97 unit-cells. It is made with a lego-type configuration allowing change manually the phase aperture distribution and demonstrating experimentally the independence of both polarizations in the same frequency band. To this end, various beam pointing directions are selected in right-hand and left-hand polarizations. The achieved bandwidth is 790 MHz (9.4% at the center frequency 8.37 GHz) for an axial ratio lower than 3.5 dB with 1.5 dB gain variations.
