  • The Poynting vector (S) is defined as the rate of energy per unit area.
  • The rate of energy is also known as power.  
  • Therefore, S =  
  • where, S = Poynting vector , P = Power and A = Area
  • Unit of Power is the watt (W) and the area is m2.
  • So, the SI unit of S = 

Important Points

The Poynting vector {S} is also defined as:

S = E × H

where, S = Poynting vector

E = Electric field vector

H = Magnetic field vector

× = Cross product
