To understand the global characteristics of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves in the magnetosphere, we performed a statistical study of EMIC wave properties waves based on the Van Allen Probes (RBSP) and Exploration of energization and Radiation in Geospace (ERG) observations in 2017-2018. Our previous study found significant dependencies of EMIC wave distributions on geomagnetic conditions. H-band EMIC waves outside the plasmasphere had two peak occurrence regions at 10-14 MLT at L~7-8 during the recovery phase and at 4-8 MLT at L>8 during the non-storm intervals. He-band EMIC waves inside the plasmasphere were dominantly observed at 10-20 MLT during the main phase. In this study, we focus on EMIC wave properties and discuss possible drivers of EMIC wave excitation depending on geomagnetic conditions. In preliminary results by RBSP, we found that the wave powers of He-band EMIC waves are strongly enhanced during the disturbed intervals, while H-band EMIC waves have no significant wave power variations under different conditions. The other two properties (polarization and wave normal angle) showed no clear tendencies among geomagnetic activities. He-band EMIC waves were predominantly observed with left-hand polarization and higher wave normal angles, while H-band EMIC waves showed a mixture of left-hand and linear polarizations with lower wave normal angles. From these observations, we suggest that energetic particle input is the major free energy source of intense He-band EMIC waves at which the cold and dense plasma dominates. Under this condition, the growth rate of EMIC waves can have a maximum at lower frequency regions and they easily excite with strong wave power. We will combine ERG observations to extend spatial coverage up to L=12 and higher magnetic latitudes, in order to understand the generation and propagation effects on EMIC wave properties in the magnetosphere.
