Expressions for the electric vector of the first‐ and the second‐order cross modulation have been derived for an amplitude‐modulated wave propagating in a nonlinear dispersive medium as well and for a normally incident wave reflecting back into free space from the plasma freespace interface. In the discussion, some numerical results illustrating the variation of the cross modulation with different plasma parameters are presented in tabular form.
