We study traveling wave solutions of the following chemotaxis systems,⎩⎨⎧ut=Δu−χ1∇(u∇v1)+χ2∇(u∇v2)+u(a−bu),x∈RN0=Δv1−λ1v1+μ1u,x∈RN,0=Δv2−λ2v2+μ2u,x∈RN,where u(x,t),v1(x,t) and v2(x,t) represent the population densities of a mobile species, a chemoattractant, and a chemo-repulsion, respectively. In an earlier work, we proved that there is a constant K≥0 such that if b+χ2μ2>χ1μ1+K, then the steady solution (ba,bλ1aμ1,bλ2aμ2) is asymptotically stable with respect to positive perturbations. In this paper, we prove that if b+χ2μ2>χ1μ1+K, then there exist a number c∗(χ1,μ1,λ1,χ2,μ2,λ2)≥2a such that for every c∈(c∗(χ1,μ1,λ1,χ2,μ2,λ2),∞) and ξ∈SN−1, the system has a traveling wave solution (u,v1,v2)=(U(x⋅ξ−ct),V1(x⋅ξ−ct),V2(x⋅ξ−ct)) with speed c connecting the constant solutions (ba,bλ1aμ1,bλ2aμ2) and (0,0,0), and it does not have such traveling wave solutions of speed less than 2a. Moreover we prove that(χ1,χ2)→(0+,0+)limc∗(χ1,μ1,λ1,χ2,μ2,λ2)=⎩⎨⎧2aifa≤min{λ1,λ2}λ1a+λ1ifλ1≤min{a,λ2}λ2a+λ2ifλ2≤min{a,λ1},∀λ1,λ2,μ1,μ2>0,andx→∞lime−aμxU(x)=1, where μ solves a(μ+μ1)=c in the interval (0,min{1,aλ1,aλ2}).
