            Abstract : 
An expression for the upper bound of any component of the electric or magnetic field at any point in a region is derived in terms of a product of two surface field integrals. The result is most useful for bounding errors in near-field array synthesis, but might have other applications where upper bounds on field magnitudes are desired.
