We have used power spectra analysis on high frequency (1.4 GHz) data, obtained with the Effelsberg 100m radio-telescope in order to investigate the emission characteristics of pulsars. This analysis has not only revealed the prominent periodicities of the fluctuating components, but has also proven a powerful tool for identifying weak and often unresolved components and their longitudinal location within the integrated pulsar profile. Furthermore, close examination of the properties of the fluctuating components indicates physical connections between them, giving new insight to the structure of the emitting region.
