Abstract: The trilayered (A-B-A type) anisotropic (single site) XY magnetic model is considered with the intra-plane ferromagnetic and the inter-plane antiferromagnetic interactions. The equilibrium properties of such trilayered anisotropic XY system has been studied by Monte Carlo simulation with Metropolis single spin (randomly chosen) update algorithm. In a given range of interaction parameters, the system has been found to exhibit the high temperature {\it critical} (vanishing sublattice magnetisations and total magnetisation) and low temperature {\it compensation} (vanishing total magnetisation even for non-vanishing sublattice magnetisations) behaviours. The compensation temperature and the critical temperature both are found to increase with the increase of single site anisotropy. The comprehensive phase diagram is drawn. The finite size study reveals the growth of correlations near the critical temperature.
