We summarize latest PIC simulation results on the radiation from Poynting jets and strongly magnetized collisionless shocks when a Poynting jet runs into cold ambient medium. We find that in all cases the radiative power output is much below that predicted by synchrotron radiation and the critical frequency is also much lower than the synchrotron critical frequency. We discuss the implications for the interpretation of GRB prompt emission data.
