Abstract: The applications of sensor networks which are developed require the location of wireless devices, and localization technique has been developed to meet this requirement. The Wireless sensor networks have been proved useful in many applications, like environment monitoring and military surveillance and many more. Triangulation is one such method that will be examined for localization. For the triangulation based localization uses the geometric properties of triangle to estimate locations, which relies on angle measurements.
