Antenna diversity - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in late 2012 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2012, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts. Here is the full original RF Cafe Forums on Archive.org

Antenna Diversity: You are in a Rayleigh fading environment where the distributionon signal power P (a random variable) at an antenna is ae^(-ap)u(p) for a some positive real constant and the powers of antennas separated by a few wavelengths is independent.

What is the minimum number of antennas you need have probility q that at least one antenna has a power level above Pmin?
