Studies of ULF pulsations based on observations with the AMPTE CCE spacecraft are reviewed and suggestions are made for future ground/satellite studies of ULF waves. CCE is an elliptically orbiting satellite with an apogee of 8.8 R_E and a low-inclination of 4.8°. These orbital characteristics make the spacecraft very useful for examining the spatial variation of ULF wave properties. Wave types reviewed in this paper include transverse Pc 3-5 waves, compressional Pc 5 waves, and Pi 2 waves. Possible subjects of future ground/satellite studies include giant pulsations and Pc 1 waves. Some preliminary results are presented using data from Syowa and other ground-based stations.
