  1. Abstract We explore the characteristics of EMIC waves generated in a non‐dipole, compressed magnetic field at the minimum of the magnetic field. We conducted 2D full‐wave simulations using the Petra‐M code, focusing on a compressed magnetic field in the outer dayside magnetosphere for a range ofLvalues . By comparing the simulation results with MMS observations, we aim to understand how the observed wave characteristics are affected by a shifting source region across different L‐shells. Our findings indicate that the direction of the Poynting vector systematically changes depending on the local source location of the wave, which is consistent with the observations. EMIC waves propagate along the magnetic field line and reach both the northern and southern hemispheres; however, there is a notable difference in the power of EMIC waves between the two hemispheres, indicating seasonal asymmetries in their occurrence.
