Abstract

See full text

Methods of selecting a number of channels out of a multiplicity of channels of an implantable neural stimulation system for stimulation during a stimulation frame include obtaining a threshold corresponding to the stimulation frame, using the threshold to determine an adjusted amplitude corresponding to one or more channels within the multiplicity of channels, using the adjusted amplitudes to determine a probability for each of the one or more channels within the multiplicity of channels, providing a random number for each of the one or more channels within the multiplicity of channels, and selecting a number of channels within the one or more channels for stimulation during the stimulation frame. Each of the selected number of channels has a probability that is greater than the random number.
