Analytical formulism of oscillating two-stream instability of a plasma wave has been revisited by incorporating the effect of a relativistic electron-beam. A large-amplitude plasma wave may be susceptible to oscillating two-stream instability by decaying in a low-frequency mode and the sideband waves. The relativistic electron-beam may contribute in decaying the energy associated with the pump wave. In consequence, the growth of instability is enhanced. The findings of our calculations show that the growth of instability may be reached to a crucial level in the presence of a relativistic electron-beam. The growth of interacting waves during the instability is seriously affected by the relative motion between the beam electrons and the background plasma particles. This work may be important to understand the behavior of space and astrophysical plasmas.
