Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) interference poses a serious threat to reliable positioning, especially in indoor and multipath-rich environments where source localization is highly challenging. In this paper, we formulate GNSS interference localization as an active sensing problem and propose a reinforcement learning (RL) framework in which an agent sequentially explores the environment to infer the position of an emitter source from radio frequency (RF) observations acquired with a 2x2 patch antenna. The localization task is modeled as a partially observable decision process, since single-snapshot measurements are often ambiguous under multipath propagation and changing channel conditions. To address this, the proposed framework combines high-dimensional RF sensing with deep RL and recurrent policy learning. We investigate both value-based and policy-based approaches, namely Deep Q-Networks (DQN) and Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), and study their behavior under domain shift. The approach is evaluated on a simulated dataset generated with the Sionna ray-tracing module, which provides realistic propagation effects and diverse environment configurations. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves a localization success rate of 80.1, demonstrating the potential of RL for adaptive GNSS interference localization. Overall, the results highlight simulation-assisted training as a promising direction for robust interference localization in challenging propagation environments.
