If Kraus said "The radiation is perpendicular to the accelleration"
then the book is worthless.
Balanis says, speaking of an infinitesimal dipole:
"Integrating the complex Poynting vector over a closed
sphere, ... results in the power (real and imaginary)
directed in the radial direction. Any transverse
components of power density, ... will not be captured by
the integration even though they are part of the overall
power."
Apparently, Kraus' assertion is a result of the integration
math and does not necessarily correspond to reality.
