In this paper, we present the AFP(antenna front plate)s which were designed to reduce the reflection for the sake of the improvement of DF(direction finding) accuracy. The AFP consists of front plate, absorber and radome. The AFPs were optimized respectively by real test and we performed the DF test using our AFPs in laboratory. The DF test shows that the DF accuracy is about 2 times better than the requirement capability. Then, the DF field test was executed using the AFPs, which were installed in helicopter in consideration of the reflection by platform. The result of the DF field test is superior to the requirement capability also, which shows the validity of our design method.
