Abstract :
The near-field polarization ellipse is described. The tip of the near electric-field vector traces out an ellipse lying in an arbitrary plane. The peak and rms values of the magnitude of the electric vector are determined, as well as the orientation of the ellipse. The results are related to near-field radiation hazard criteria.
