Dipole emission

Dear Comsol community,
I simulated an electric dipole emission in homogeneous 3D space. The dielectric permittivity is 1, the boundary conditions are PML. Then I integrated the nx*emw.Poavx+ny*emw.Poavy+nz*emw.Poavz over the surface surrounding the dipole, but the result is quite differ from the analytical solution (μ0*ω^2*P^2)/(12 pi c). Due to the units of electric dipole moment in Comsol, I assume it is P(A*m)=ω(1/s)*P(c*m), so there is a squared frequency.
Could you clarify the difference?
Thanks for every reply and suggestion.
