To alleviate the shortage of licensed spectrum resource, a method to design and implement the multi-user Cooperative Spectrum Sharing (CSS) mechanism was proposed based on the characteristics of asymmetric network information and selfishness of communication users. First, by modeling the CSS as a labor market, a modeling method for the multi-user contract-based CSS framework was investigated under the symmetric network information scenario. Then, to avoid the moral hazard problem due to the hidden-action of Secondary Users (SUs) after contract assignment, a contract-based CSS model was proposed to incentivize the contribution of SUs for ensuring spectrum sharing. The experimental results show that, when the direct transmission rate of Primary User (PU) is less than 0.2 b/s, in comparison with the case of non-cooperative spectrum sharing, the capacity of network is more than 3 times larger. The proposed multi-user contract-based CSS framework will put forward new ideas for efficient sharing and utilization of spectrum resource.
