The linear gyrokinetic equation near gyrofrequency in the presentation of three independent electric field components is derived by following the method of Chen and Tsai. This equation is suitable for investigation of radiofrequency heating in the inhomogeneous plasmas-The solutions of the equation for axisymmetric tokamaks is given.
