The radio radiation neutron star include objects with spin periods ranging from a few milliseconds to tens of seconds. In the past years, however, the discovery of ultra-long period radio transient sources has posed a new challenge to the classical theoretical framework of the neutron star magnetospheric dipole model. This proposal aims to study the unique characteristics of the radio emitting neutron star, PSR J0901-4046, and the similarity of its spectro-polarimetric features with fast radio bursts (FRBs). By observing its single-pulse structures and polarization profiles, we hope to understand the origin of radio emission from magnetars and establish the potential association between Galactic neutron stars and FRBs. Using the Parkes/Murriyang 64-m radio telescope equipped with the Ultra-Wideband Low-Frequency receiver (UWL), we propose to conduct a total of 24-hour observations to search for single pulses. The expected outcomes include detecting rich single pulses with unique characteristics and providing insights into neutron star populations and their connection to FRBs.
