The results based on the MMS 4 and MMS 3 pair of measurements show that shock arrival leads to low mode (\m\<= 3 $\vert m\vert \le 3$) magnetic fluctuations in the Pc4-5 regimes, and smaller spatial scale fluctuations implied by the dominant high mode numbers are observed after both shock signatures hit and passed the magnetosphere. Detailed evolution of the mode structure is also shown for the first shock to reveal the development of high mode structure from a bump-on-tail distribution at m approximate to 20 $m\approx 20$ to a dominant peak at m approximate to 50 $m\approx 50$ in about 10 min. In addition, an interesting change of sign in m $m$ from negative to positive is observed as MMS crosses similar to 11 MLT pre-noon, which is consistent with the picture of wave generation by dayside magnetopause compression and then anti-sunward propagation. For both shocks, the contribution of higher frequency waves (Pc-4 range compared with Pc-5) to the total wave power is found to be negligible before and after the shock impact, but it becomes more significant during the shock impact.
