In this paper, we address the problem of computing the probability that r out of n interfering wireless signals are "captured," i.e., received with sufficiently large Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) to correctly decode the signals by a receiver with multi-packet reception (MPR) and Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) capabilities. We start by considering the simpler case of a pure MPR system without SIC, for which we provide an expression for the distribution of the number of captured packets, whose computational complexity scales with n and r. This analysis makes it possible to investigate the system throughput as a function of the MPR capabilities of the receiver. We then generalize the analysis to SIC systems. In addition to the exact expressions for the capture probability and the normalized system throughput, we also derive approximate expressions that are much easier to compute and provide accurate results in some practical scenarios. Finally, we present selected results for some case studies with the purpose of illustrating the potential of the proposed mathematical framework and validating the approximate methods.
