The Australian Communications and Media Authority has begun planning for the auction of the lucrative 700MHz and 2.5GHz "waterfront" spectrum blocks, which carriers hope to use for future mobile ...

This paper reports laboratory experiments that evaluate the performance of a flexible package bidding format developed by the FCC, in comparison with other combinatorial formats. In general, the ...

Combinatorial auctions are mechanisms in which participants bid on combinations of items rather than on individual items. This format is particularly well suited to scenarios where the value of ...

The ACMA is planning to use a combinatorial clock auction for the sale of 700MHz digital dividend spectrum and the 2.5GHz spectrum presently used for TV outside broadcast relays: both expected to be ...

Mexico this week completed the public consultation for January’s 4G auction and confirmed it will use the combinatorial clock auction (CCA) format for the first time. In a statement, the Federal ...

We use theory and experiment to explore the performance of multi-round, price-guided, combinatorial auctions. We define efficiency-relevant and core-relevant packages and show that if bidders bid ...
