  To maximize the number of planet detections by increasing efficiency, current
microlensing follow-up observation experiments are focusing on
high-magnification events to search for planet-induced perturbations near the
peak of lensing light curves. It was known that by monitoring
high-magnification events, it is possible to detect multiplicity signatures of
planetary systems. However, it was believed that the interpretation of the
signals and the characterization of the detected multiple-planet systems would
be difficult due to the complexity of the magnification pattern in the central
region combined with the large number of lensing parameters required to model
multiple-planet systems. In this paper, we demonstrate that in many cases the
central planetary perturbations induced by multiple planets can be well
approximated by the superposition of the single planetary perturbations where
the individual planet-primary pairs act as independent binary lens systems
(binary superposition). The validity of the binary-superposition approximation
implies that the analysis of perturbations induced by multiple planets can be
greatly simplified because the anomalies produced by the individual planet
components can be investigated separately by using relatively much simpler
single-planetary analysis, and thus enables better characterization of these
systems.
