Abstract: In a multi-heterogeneous network with dense deployment and convergence environment, how to efficiently and reasonably allocate idle spectrum resources of the primary network to meet the diversified business demands of secondary users is a difficult problem. In this article, with the goal of maximizing the total transmission rate and minimizing the total cost, a dual-objective optimization mathematical model for network selection and idle spectrum allocation is established in the context of comprehensive consideration of the diversity of spectrum resource attributes and the diversification of secondary users’ business needs. Based on this, two kinds of technical paths to solve the complex network selection and spectrum allocation problem are applied in this article. The first is the simplification method. By preprocessing of objective function, constraint simplification, and standardization, the complex spectrum allocation problem is transformed into a standard form of the 01 programming problem, and the solution is obtained by an improved Hungarian algorithm. Second, an intelligent optimization algorithm named improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II is proposed, which combines the interference constraints of the primary network and the service quality requirements of the secondary users into the objective value evaluation of non-dominated sorting, and corrects the chromosomes that do not meet the constraints. And then makes a decision selection on the optimal solution set to select a compromise solution. Finally, methods proposed in this article are compared with the multi-objective artificial bee colony algorithm through experiments. Experimental results show that the simplified method has higher efficiency, and the improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II can get higher transmission rate, especially the transmission rate–priority strategy.
