Ensuring Minimum Spectrum Requirement in Matching-Based Spectrum Allocation

Abstract

To enable dynamic spectrum access, service providers with spare spectrum (sellers) trade with those who are in need of additional spectrum (buyers). In a spectrum market, the transaction result is essentially a matching between sellers and buyers. Though it is tempting to optimize the matching over certain utility functions, a stable matching is more desirable, since no participants have incentives to deviate from the matching result. Existing spectrum matching algorithms only consider the maximum number of channels a buyer can purchase, but ignore minimum spectrum requirement that is essential to support proper operation of wireless communications. In this paper, we present a new framework of spectrum matching with both maximum quota and minimum requirements. Different from conventional matching problems, the spectrum market poses distinctive challenges due to spectrum reusability. To tackle this problem, we design two novel algorithms that satisfy different stability criterion: Extended Deferred Acceptance (EDA) algorithm that is fair but wasteful and the Multistage Deferred Acceptance (MDA) algorithm that is non-wasteful but weakly fair. Both algorithms converge to an interference-free matching and guarantees the minimum spectrum requirement. The simulation results show that the two proposed algorithms can raise buyer happiness and the channel utilization.
