  We construct and investigate the pulsar luminosity function using the new
catalogue which includes data for 1315 radio pulsars. The luminosity functions
are constructed for 400 and 1400 MHz separately, and they are compared. Also,
the luminosity functions excluding the binary millisecond pulsars and other
pulsars with low magnetic fields are constructed. The 1400 MHz luminosities as
a function of characteristic age and as a function of magnetic field for radio
pulsars, anomalous X-ray pulsars and dim radio quiet neutron stars are
presented and the implications of the pulsar luminosity function on these new
kind of neutron stars are discussed.
