In recent years, the use of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has been increasing. Like WSNs protocols development, localization is the main issue and needed to address several areas including 3D and mobile anchor-based localization algorithms. WSNs are being used widely in different fields like environment, disaster relief, target tracking and several other applications like the SCADA system for the high voltage of electricity. In many applications, node localization is very important in which the system needed to know the exact location of the event. This paper addresses the main ideas and techniques published in recent years. We highlight the error performance analysis between the algorithms stated static 3D localization.
