Cluster measurements open fundamental new possibilities concerning the analysis of complex electromagnetic wave-fields in the various key regions of the magnetosphere-solar wind system. Based on the Cluster wave-field measurement a multi-spacecraft data analysis technique called "K-filtering" has been developed. It allows three dimensional electromagnetic structure identification in the wave-field. We applied this technique to two data sets coming from the STAFF experiment and the corresponding results are presented. The first Cluster data set considered consists mainly of monochromatic magnetic field fluctuations. It is used to validate the K-filtering technique for the important case of electromagnetic plane wave identification. The second Cluster data set is composed of magnetic field fluctuations measured in the magnetosheath. The K-filtering technique is applied to this data set to estimate the field energy distribution in (w,k) space. Results are presented (see also the paper by Rezeau et al.) and limitations related respectively to the field and the experimental constraints are examined.
