Check all of these carefully:-
you are on a good Wi-Fi, (from 15.4 iPhone 7 up, you may be offered cellular update) and that the router is connected to the internet.
Plenty of spare storage – 6GB at least.
Low power mode turned off and on charge with more than 20%, or off charge with more than 50%
Check you have no Beta profile installed. (Check Settings, General, VPN & Device Management)

I solved this problen by upgrading via iTunes. It may take several attempts especially if you have iPhone purchases that have not previously transfered to iTunes. Make sure iTunes syncs and downloads/transfers everything it wants to iTunes before attempting the the upgrade to iOS 16.6.1. Then you should have no problem with the upgrade. Hopefully there will be no issues with the upgrade to iOS 17. Also do not ignore LD150's recommendations above.
You're most welcome! Thanks for feeding back.
