In [[radiometry]], '''radiant intensity''' is a measure of the intensity of [[electromagnetic radiation]]. It is defined as [[power (physics)|power]] per unit [[solid angle]]. The [[SI]] unit of radiant intensity is [[watt]]s per [[steradian]] (W·sr<sup>−1</sup>). Radiant intensity is distinct from [[irradiance]] and [[radiant exitance]], which are often called ''[[intensity (physics)|intensity]]'' in branches of physics other than radiometry. In [[RF engineering]], radiant intensity is sometimes called '''radiation intensity'''.

Radiant intensity is used to characterize the emission of radiation by an [[Antenna (radio)|antenna]].<ref>{{cite book |title=Antennas for all applications |edition=3rd |first1=John |last1=de Kraus |first2=Ronald J. |last2=Marhefka |year=2002 |isbn=0-07-232103-2}}</ref> Given an antenna's [[irradiance|power density]] <math>S_r</math> (watts per square meter), at some distance <math>r</math> from the antenna, radiation intensity is calculated by multiplying by the square of the distance:

The radiation intensity is expressed in watts per unit solid angle (watts per steradian). Unlike power density, radiation intensity does not depend on distance: because radiation intensity is defined as the power through a solid angle, the decreasing power density over distance due to the [[inverse-square law]] is offset by the increase in area with distance.

Radiation intensity can as well characterize [[X-ray tube]] with filtration. X-ray tube output is defined for this purpose.
