Algorithm 1 Pseudocode for the CTA diffusion strategy

1:
For any $U A V_{i}$ , $U A V_{k}$ ∈ $N_{i}$ , $\vec{F V_{i} [0]}$ is initialized as 0.
2:
at time n:
3:
Each UAV calculates its load through (8).
4:
$U A V_{i}$ calculates $\vec{F v_{i, j} [n - 1]}$ through (10).
5:
$U A V_{i}$ broadcasts it $\vec{F V_{k} [n - 1]}$ to neighboring UAVs.
6:
$U A V_{i}$ calculates the sum of $\vec{F V_{k} [n - 1]}$ ( $U A V_{k}$ ∈ $N_{i}$ ) through (15).
7:
$U A V_{i}$ calculates its UAV-UAV virtual force $\vec{F V_{i} [n]}$ through (16)
