Auction is often applied in cognitive radio networks due to its efficiency and fairness properties. An important issue in designing an auction mechanism is how to utilize the limited spectrum resource in an efficient manner. In order to achieve this goal, we propose a predictive double spectrum auction model in this paper. Our auction model first obtains the bidding range from statistical analysis, and then separates the interval into independent states and employees a Markovian prediction based algorithm to generate guidelines for the bidding range of primary and secondary users, respectively. Comparing with existing approaches, our proposed auction model is more efficient in spectrum utilization and satisfies the economic properties. Extensive simulation results show that our work achieves an utilization ratio up to 91 %.
