Summary :

The simultaneous measurement of five field components (three magnetic and two electric components) was carried out on board the ionospheric Aureol-3 satellite in a frequency range from 10 Hz to 1.5 kHz, and we have developed a systematic signal processing of direction finding for ionospheric and magnetospheric ELF emissions at eight selected frequencies mainly based on the likelihood concept. So, the purpose of this paper is to present the detailed description of those systematic direction finding measurements at frequencies above and below the proton gyrofrequency, but more emphasis is placed on the latter frequency range where two possible modes of propagation may coexist. This kind of systematic analyses will be of great use in the future wave analysis system on the spacecrafts.
