I try to say, that the results you get from an fft or rfft are the 
cosine and sine portion of the signal (one value per frequency) in the 
frequency domain. (also referred to as real and imag part.
but if you square them, you will not get 1 for each frequency but the 
amplitude.
so cos(f1)^2+sin(f1)^2=amplitude(f1)^2.
