Except for model 7, the survey region is limited in Galactic longitude by $20^\circ <\rm {l}<90^\circ $. The survey time is expressed in number of days with eight hours of observation. The number of detected normal and millisecond pulsars are rounded to the nearest 100, and 10, respectively. The number of known pulsars has been obtained from the ATNF Pulsar Catalogue (Manchester et al. 2005).
