description Highly precise node localization in underwater wireless sensor networks has been regarded as a fundamental guarantee for ensuring the reliability of data in critical tasks such as ocean monitoring and disaster early warning. However, localization errors were found to potentially induce data deviations and even cascading failures of system functions. To address this issue, the research progress of current underwater localization technologies was systematically reviewed. Representative methods were divided into three categories, namely traditional algorithms, deep learning models, and reinforcement learning strategies, and they were summarized and compared in terms of their fundamental principles, performance characteristics, and applicable scenarios. Furthermore, key technical aspects such as time synchronization mechanisms and communication strategies in localization systems were analyzed in depth, and their impact on overall system performance as well as associated challenges was investigated. Based on these findings, potential future directions are outlined, including collaborative optimization across layers with high energy efficiency, the integration of artificial intelligence and edge intelligence, resilient cooperative localization for dynamic topology networks, and the exploration of localization approaches inspired by biology.
