Abstract
The present disclosure provides an antenna array control method and an access point using the same. The antenna array control method may include the following steps. At least a packet is selected as at least a probing packet every probing period. One of the radiation patterns to be probed in an antenna array is used to transmit the probing packet. The packet error rates of the radiation patterns to be probed in the antenna array are calculated. The radiation pattern with a minimum packet error rate among all of the radiation patterns is selected as a best radiation pattern.
