Unmanned combat system is one of the important means to capture information superiority, carry
out precision strike and accomplish special combat tasks in information war. Unmanned attack strategy plays a
crucial role in unmanned combat system, which has to ensure the attack by unmanned surface vehicles (USVs)
from failure. To meet the challenge, we propose a task allocation algorithm called distributed auction mechanism
task allocation with grey wolf optimization (DAGWO). The traditional grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm
is improved with a distributed auction mechanism (DAM) to constrain the initialization of wolves, which improves
the optimization process according to the actual situation. In addition, one unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is
employed as the central control system to establish task allocation model and construct fitness function for the
multiple constraints of USV attack problem. The proposed DAGWO algorithm can not only ensure the diversity of
wolves, but also avoid the local optimum problem. Simulation results show that the proposed DAGWO algorithm
can effectively solve the problem of attack task allocation among multiple USVs.
