Coupling of micropulsation wave modes by the Coriolis force and centrifugal force in
the Earth's equatorial plane has been considered. The analytical form of electric field is
derived for a particular coupled wave mode. To study the variation of electric field with
geocentric distance, numerical analyses have been made which are presented graphically.
