Abstract
A method for controlling an antenna is provided. The antenna can rotate in a signal area and point to one of a plurality of scanning sectors of the signal area. The method includes: (a) measuring an environment identification data in an initial scanning sector of the scanning sectors and determining if the environment identification data matches an operation identification data; (b) if the environment identification data matches the operation identification data, measuring an environment evaluation signal, wherein the environment evaluation signal corresponds to the environment identification data; (c) comparing the environment evaluation signal with an operation evaluation signal, wherein the operation identification data corresponds to the operation evaluation signal; and (d) maintaining the antenna in the initial scanning sector and recording the environment evaluation signal if the environment evaluation signal is larger than or equal to the operation evaluation signal.
