contents Plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) is a promising method for reducing the scale and cost of future electron-positron collider experiments by using shorter plasma sections to enhance beam energy. While electron acceleration has already achieved breakthroughs in theory and experimentation, generating high-quality positron beams in plasma presents greater challenges, such as controlling emittance and energy spread, improving energy conversion efficiency, and generating positron sources. In this paper, we have summarized the research progress on advanced positron acceleration schemes, including particle beam-driven wakefield acceleration, laser-driven wakefield acceleration, radiation-based acceleration, hollow plasma channels, among others. The strengths and weaknesses of these approaches are analyzed, and the future outlook is discussed to drive experimental advancements.
