The physical mechanisms underlying the suppression of wave growth and triggering in a system of two whistler waves are investigated theoretically. A numerical model is developed to determine the critical frequency spacing associated with unsymmetrical interaction effects, and a comparison was made with the known critical frequency spacing associated with mutual interaction effects. For the range of frequencies corresponding to whistler mode ducted propagation in the magnetosphere near L = 4, it is shown that the unsymmetrical effect may dominate the mutual effect above critical amplitude levels and within the range of wave amplitudes from about 1 to 10 pT. The model estimates of critical frequency separations are found to agree with those reported by Heliwell (1983) for the frequency range 3-4 kHz, where detected unsymmetrical effects seem to extend to separations larger than 200 Hz.
