A two-spacecraft technique is used to study the problem of solar wind perturbations occuring in the region upstream of the earth's bow shock, where low-frequency waves are present. In contrast with some previous investigations, no significant variations are found in that region for the average values of the basic solar wind parameters (bulk spped, proton density, and temperature) relative to the unperturbed flow.
