Poster abstract: SALUTE: A strategy-proof auction mechanism for flexible multichannel allocation

Recently a few strategy-proof spectrum auction mechanisms for multichannel have been proposed. However, such designs have some limitations related to the channel demands and valuations. In this paper, we propose SALUTE, which is a StrAtegy-proof and fLexible mUltichannel aucTion mEchanism. SALUTE supports flexible combinatorial bids, with continuous or noncontinuous demands and random non-decreasing valuation functions. Extensive evaluation results show that SALUTE achieves good spectrum redistribution efficiency and prevents bidders from manipulating the auction.
