Pulsars are believed to be one of the most interesting objects in the universe. The emission mechanism of pulsars is still a conundrum to physicists, as there is no completely acceptable theory that can establish a consensus between theory and observation. Pulsars possess a gigantic magnetic field, to the order of 10¹² Gauss, and generate a very powerful radio beam from the magnetic pole. However, the powerful radio beam is generated by some complicated coherent plasma processes and acceleration in the pulsar magnetosphere. The location of the origin of the radio waves has been predicted to come out exclusively from the polar cap zone, whose boundary is defined by the footprint of the last open field line. However, in this paper, we mainly try to generate the shape of the polar cap structure from an analytical solution and discuss how it gets distorted for different geometrical parameters due to the presence of perturbation such as polar cap current flow. Also, apart from that, we try to emphasize understanding the variation of radio emission height and polarization angle with respect to different geometry-related parameters as well as with frequency.
