The invention relates to a method for locating a vehicle located within a parking area using multiple WLAN base stations, each of which comprises an antenna array. The vehicle comprises a communication interface for communicating with the WLAN base stations via a wireless WLAN communication network. The method has the following steps: each antenna array receiving a radio signal transmitted by means of the communication interface of the vehicle via the wireless communication network, ascertaining an angle of incidence of each received radio signal relative to a respective normal of the antennaarray, ascertaining a signal intensity of the respective received radio signal, and carrying out a triangulation using the ascertained angle of incidence and the ascertained signal intensities in order to locate the vehicle within the parking area. The invention also relates to a corresponding system, a parking area and a computer program.
