Abstract: Systems and methods for a neuromodulation system are provided. In one example, the neuromodulation system includes a stimulation element, a stimulation controller, and a stimulation feedback acquisition system that includes a reference trigger input module configured such that the temporal relationship between a provided stimulation via the stimulation element and the stimulation controller, and a stimulation response received by the stimulation feedback acquisition system can be characterized.

Abstract: A control system for a movement reconstruction and/or restoration system for a patient, comprising at least one sensor, at least one controller, at least one programmer, at least one stimulation system, wherein the controller is connected with the sensor, the programmer and the stimulation system, wherein the sensor is part of or attached to a training entity in order to create and/or guide a movement model for a patient and/or adjust stimulation settings based on sensor input.

Abstract: An antenna for an implantable medical device, the antenna being configured for inductive wireless power transfer and/or near-field magnetic induction communication, the antenna comprising at least one coil or at least one set of coils, each coil comprising several windings. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to an implantable medical device (IMD).

Abstract: Inductive wireless power transfer systems are provided for medical devices, such as implantable medical devices (IMDs). The systems may comprise a transmitter unit and a receiver unit and may be configured for transferring power and/or signals from the transmitter unit to the receiver unit and/or vice versa. The transmitter unit may comprise an energy source, a transmitter antenna, and a supply line connected in between the energy source and the antenna. The receiver unit may comprise a receiver antenna and a rectifier output. The transmitter antenna and the receiver antenna may be configured to provide a wireless power transfer link. The supply line may comprise a virtual resistance unit, which may be configured to provide a virtual resistance, which may be determined such that the rectifier output provides a substantially constant or less varying charge current over a predetermined distance range, for a large range of implant depths.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for generating a pulsed transmission signal. The method includes the steps of generating a plurality of transmission bursts by encoding data with a predetermined spreading code, each of the bursts including a train of pulses defining a burst length of the burst; and sizing the transmission bursts to a peak power level within a predetermined limit, thereby forming the transmission signal. The sizing of the transmission bursts includes the step of modifying the amplitude of the pulses of the burst on the basis of a predetermined relationship between the burst length and the peak/average transmission power level. Also disclosed is a transmitter device implementing the method.
