Abstract

In order to make better use of and coordinate unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) resources and realize the function of UAV autonomous collaborative task execution, an improved distributed collaborative auction algorithm is proposed for the complex allocation problem of multi-UAV and multiple tasks. A new auction mechanism is developed. The algorithm has wider applicability and can solve various allocation problems such as “one to one, one to many, many to one, many to many”. Simulation results show that the improved algorithm has good results in solving different allocation problems, and it is easier to get the optimal income, which proves the effectiveness of the algorithm.
