Near-field is only a few wavelengths away when the antenna itself is a half wavelength in dimension. Otherwise you would calculate the size of the near field as a function of the physical dimension of the antenna and the wavelength: r2 = 2d^2/λ.
E.g. The radiating near field of a 2.4GHz antenna about 8 meters long would extend about 1km.
