Abstract :
A study is made of the linear stage of parametric instability of electromagnetic waves guided by anisotropic cylinder surrounded by uniform dielectric space. A three wave interaction can occur if the space-time condition between the external electric field and the guided waves takes place. The expression of instability increment of guided whistler waves is obtained. For the some practically interesting cases numerical analyses have been performed.
