S s s s • CASE I. wi,j = 0, wi,j = 0. In this case, Ui,j = Ui,j = 0. s s s s ≥ 0 due to individual • CASE II. wi,j = 1, wi,j = 0. In this case, Ui,j = 0, Ui,j rationality. s s • CASE III. wi,j = 1, wi,j = 1. In this case, the seller is paid the group bid, s s = Ui,j . independent of his ask. Ui,j s s s , in • CASE IV. wi,j = 0, wi,j = 1. It can only happen when ri,j < Φj < ri,j = vi,j s s s which Φj is the group bid. In this case, Ui,j = Φj − vi,j < 0 = Ui,j . In summary, the seller cannot improve its utility gained from a certain spectrum by misreporting the ask for that spectrum.

Therefore, the buyer does not gain higher utility by being untruthful. • Case II. Buyer j wins the spectrum si when he bids truthfully and loses the spectrum si when he bids untruthfully. In the former case, he achieves nonnegative utility due to individual rationality. In the later case, he achieves zero utility. Therefore, the buyer has higher utility when being truthful. • Case III. Buyer j wins the spectrum si when he bids truthfully and untruthfully, and he pays the same price according to Lemma 13.

We assume that the objective of the auctioneer is to maintain a balanced budget at each time slot, that is, Uta ≥ 0, t = 1, 2, · · · , T . At each time stage t, all buyers submit their spectrum requests to the auctioneer, then the auctioneer decides the spectrum allocation and the corresponding payments. The auction results are represented by a 3-dimensional matrix Xi,j ,t , i ∈ [1, M], j ∈ [1, N ], t ∈ [1, T ]. At time stage t, if the auctioneer decides to allocate the spectrum si to buyer j for tj time slots, then xi,j ,t = 1, xi,j ,t+1 = 1, .
