$^{117m}$Sn is one of the radioisotopes can be beneficially produced throughalpha particle irradiation. The targets were prepared by deposition of$^{116}$Cd metal onto high purity 12 $\mu$m thick Cu backing. The averagedeposited thickness was 21.9 $\mu$m. The beam energy was thoroughly measured byTime of Flight (TOF) methods and proved to be 51.2 MeV. For the experiment thewell-established stacked foil technique was used. In addition to the Cdtargets, Ti foils were also inserted into the stacks for energy and intensitymonitoring. The Cu backings were also used for monitoring and as recoil catcherof the reaction products from the cadmium layer. The activities of theirradiated foils were measured with HPGe detector for gamma-ray spectrometryand cross section values were determined. As a result excitation functions forthe formation of $^{117m}$Sn, $^{117m,g}$In, $^{116m}$In, $^{115m}$In and$^{115m,g}$Cd from enriched $^{116}$Cd were deduced and compared with theavailable literature data and with the results of the nuclear reaction modelcode calculations EMPIRE 3.2 and TALYS 1.8. Yield curves were also deduced forthe measured nuclear reactions and compared with the literature.
