The technique of localization is the core technology for information exchange or environment monitering to measure the position of an object or person. Today, the techniques of localization have been studied extensively and it can be applied to logistics, medical, robotics, etc. But, a lot of money to apply technique of localization is needed. Hence in this paper, we proposed AoA localization system based on Zigbee at low cost. The System measured the RSSI value by rotating the directional antenna using a step motor and Zigbee module. When the measured RSSI is the largest, the receiver measures the angles from beacons which are located at the corners with the rotating angle of a stepping motor and the position of the receiver will be calculated by appling AoA localization method. The measured results show an error about 35~36 cm.
