Spectrum occupancy statistics in Bogota-Colombia

Abstract

This document describes the details and results of a spectrum occupancy measurement campaign which took place in Bogota (Colombia) from March to December 2012. The study includes the analysis of occupation of all frequency bands ranging from 54 MHz to 6 GHz. Measurements are sorted according to different bands and services so as to provide a clear vision into the typical duty cycles associated to different technologies. Results suggest that current spectrum utilization is still very low, even in a busy metropolitan area in the capital city.
