Dynamic Spectrum Access via Channel-Aware Heterogeneous Multi-Channel Auction With Distributed Learning
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We consider the design of dynamic spectrum access (DSA) mechanism. Assuming heterogeneous primary channels with distinct availability statistics unknown to each secondary user (SU), we consider the auction-based approaches for spectrum access. We first apply a unit demand (UD) auction by exploring the instantaneous link condition of each SU for its throughput maximization. To address the disadvantages faced in the UD auction, we propose a learning-based unit demand (LBUD) auction. It incorporates a distributed learning of the primary channel availabilities into the auction mechanism to explore both primary channel availability statistics and instantaneous link gains of the SUs for their throughput maximization. The new mechanism not only substantially reduces communication overhead, but also improves the SUs' throughputs when the primary channels have dissimilar availability statistics. We show that the proposed LBUD auction for channel allocation among SUs preserves the strong property of the UD auction. We further propose an adaptive price increment algorithm to improve convergence speed of the iterative procedure used in the auction. Numerical results show the effectiveness of our proposed auction mechanism in terms of the throughput gain.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
