Frequency scarcity due to demand of bandwidth in wireless communication can be resolved by knowledge of spectrum occupancy. Therefore different measurement campaigns were conducted for spectrum occupancy worldwide. It has been observed that large numbers of bands is underutilized. These bands can be utilized by a secondary user without interference. In this paper, Spectrum utilization has determined by conducting a campaign for measurement of spectrum occupancy in the Solapur city, India for 0.7 to 2.4 GHz frequency region. As per the analysis, Telecom cellular service band has highest spectrum occupancy while aeronautical radio, fixed satellite doesn’t have any utilization. Total average spectrum occupancy is 15.77%. These results are obtained by using circularly polarized wideband microstrip antenna in place of commercially available antennas for measurement campaign, which shows good agreement with occupancy results but with lower system complexity. The results propose that Solapur city would be a better choice for deployment of cognitive radio as emerging technology to share the unoccupied spectrum.
