Electromagnetic waves are crucial for energy transfer in the nearly collision- less plasma of the Earth's inner magnetosphere. The waves in the frequency range 1-8 kHz whose visualisation in the form of frequency-time spectrograms reveals a harmonic frequency modulation of the wave intensity are called magnetospheric line radiation (MLR). Waves characterized by a nearly periodic time modulation of the wave intensity observed at frequencies between about 0.5 and 4 kHz are called quasiperiodic (QP) emissions. Although both types of the events were re- peatedly observed by ground-based instruments and low-altitude satellites, their origin remains still unclear. Between 2004 and 2010 these wave events were me- asured by the DEMETER spacecraft (almost Sun-synchronous orbit, altitude of about 700 km). This thesis presents a systematic study of the properties of the observed events, a comparison of the observations by the spacecraft and ground- based instruments, and an investigation of a relation to solar wind parameters.
