This paper proposes a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm-based approach for solving multi-vehicle tasks allocation problem. Firstly, by analyzing the missile capacity and voyage constraints associated with vehicles, we establish the functions of threat cost, voyage cost, and attack befits. Then the mathematical model of the considered multi-vehicle task assignment is presented. Secondly, based on the position of a particle, we define the corresponding assignment vector, from which a feasible task assignment solution can be extracted. Such a solution satisfies the considered constraints. Finally, based on PSO, we develop a multi-vehicle task allocation algorithm. A simulation experiment verifies the superiority of proposed algorithm by compared it with other existing method.
