The invention discloses a resource allocation mechanism for a plurality of MVNOs (mobile virtual network operators) and a plurality of users in a 5G cellular network when the MVNOs serve as the business subject and participates in the market competition, so as to maximize the social welfare and market benefits. The virtualization technology greatly reduces the capital expenditure through the decoupling separation of services and equipment, and a flexible and high-efficiency resource allocation scheme is a research hotspot. Different from a mechanism which just gives consideration to the benefits of a seller in the market, the mechanism enables a virtual operator and a user to serve as the allocation main body, and gives consideration to the characteristics of massive MIMO, and is designed to be a combined double auction mechanism with various types of products and participants. In order to distinguish the QoS requests of different users, the mechanism introduces a utility function to guarantee the characteris
