Privacy-Preserving and Truthful Double Auction for Heterogeneous Spectrum

PSPAB: Privacy-preserving average procurement bidding system with double-spending checking

“…However, PS-Trust cannot protect the geo-location information privacy. Furthermore, by using the Paillier cryptosystem and garbled circuits, two privacy-preserving and truthful double auctions for spectrum allocation were proposed in different application scenarios [ 9 , 21 ]. However, they both lack the ability to handle the double-spending problem.…”

“…The PA is transparent to the bids of suppliers and provides the critical security functionality in our system. Notably, such models involving agents are a popular trend in auction-based applications (e.g., [ 8 , 9 , 17 ]), and we adopt such a widely used model.…”

“…Hence, we conclude that the algorithm Π is secure against semi-honest adversaries. In [ 9 ], we can see more details.…”

“…To achieve full privacy for bids, secure design for double spectrum auctions (SDSA) was presented [ 8 ] to design an efficient and practical double spectrum auction. Furthermore, Wang et al proposed a privacy-preserving and truthful double auction for a heterogeneous spectrum based on cryptographic primitives [ 9 ]. However, none of these studies provide the double-spending checking functionality.…”

A Distributed Bilateral Resource Market Mechanism for Future Telecommunications Networks

“…In particular, we are interested in studying the implementation of bilateral resource trading markets using blockchain as the data storage structure solution and smart contracts as the tool for the execution of the market mechanisms and inter-carrier financial settlement. The examples of such bilateral trade markets in telecommunications industry include: resource allocation in Network Function Virtualization (NFV) markets [3], promoting femtocell access [4], mobile crowd sensing with budget constraint [5], spectrum allocation [6] and multi-tenant Passive Optical Networks (PONs) [7]. The common challenge among these resource markets is the fact that they rely on a thirdparty broker to both store the private financial information of the participants and execute the auction mechanisms which directly determine the allocation of the resources.…”
