“…In this work, it is found that the frequency evolution of pulsar emission altitude can be divided into three groups according to their different frequency dependencies of emission altitude (emission altitude decreases with frequency (Group A, <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>η</mi><mo>≤</mo><mo>−</mo><mn>0.1</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>), keeps relatively constant with frequency (Group B, <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mo>−</mo><mn>0.1</mn><mo><</mo><mi>η</mi><mo>≤</mo><mn>0.1</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>), and increases with frequency (Group C, <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>η</mi><mo>≥</mo><mn>0.1</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>)), where <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>η</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> is the emission altitude variation rate.
