In this contribution we extend a series of previous works reported on AGU Fall Meetings (M. S. Diallo, M. Kulesh et al. (2003) Eos. Trans. AGU, 84(46), Abstract S22B-0442; M. S. Diallo, M. Kulesh et al. (2004) Eos Trans. AGU, 85(47), Abstract S31B-1063) and focused on investigation of signal's polarization attributes using the continuous wavelet transform. In these papers we proposed a method to map instantaneous polarization attributes of seismic signals in the wavelet domain and explicitly relate these attributes with the wavelet transform coefficients of the analyzed signal. In this work we apply our polarization method to a filtering of the geomagnetic field data and an examination of characteristics of Pi2 pulsations. Pi2 pulsations are defined as geomagnetic field variations with a period range of 40-150 s and an irregular waveform. The wavelet analysis is an effective method of Pi2 pulsations' investigations, for example we successfully applied the discrete wavelet transform to the development of an algorithm to detect Pi2 pulsations (M. Nose et al. (1998) Earth Planet. and Space, 50, p.773-783 and M. Nose et al. (2006) Int. Conf. Substorms-8). Here we have shown some merits of use of the continuous wavelet transform for the Pi2 pulsations' analysis. First we used our polarization method for the geomagnetic field data from the MSR, KAK, GUA, SMA and BLM observatories and showed some correlations between the polarization parameters of pulsation and the station's position (nightside or dayside). Secondly we considered the signal's north components of pair of station and demonstrated a time-frequency variations of phase difference between two stations during the pulsation. In the third place we have used known polarization properties of Pi2 pulsation and have developed an algorithm to filter Pi2 pulsation from source record. Using the geomagnetic field data from the HER and KAK observatory, we have tested the algorithm and have shown that the polarization filter picks out the Pi2 pulsation more concisely than Fourier band-pass filter.
