In this paper we present a multiple capture model for common spreading code CDMA packet radio systems with star topology. Basic equations for the collision free, header detection. and multiple capture probabilities are derived at the central receiver. Link performances. including the average number of packet captures, allowable number of simultaneous transmission, and system throughput are theoretically evaluated for a hybrid system. combining envelope header detection and differential data detection, Using the Block Oriented Systems Simulator(BOSS), simulations were carried out for the central receivers with envelope or differential geader detection, It is shown that for a threshold approx-imation to the probability of data packet success, the mulyiple capture model significantly improves system throughput.
