Strictly speaking, there is energy exchange also in the far-fieldregion. However, the amplitudes of the field intensities accountingfor energy exchange is at leastinversely proportional to the squareofthedistance,while the amplitudes ofthefieldintensities forenergy radiation are inverselyproportionalto the distance.Consequently, the exchanged energy is much less than theradiated energy in the far-field region, while the converseis truein the near-fieldregion.ENear-zonefieldsFar-zonefields
