Abstract
An example of a system for delivering neurostimulation energy may include a programming control circuit and a user interface. The programming control circuit may be configured to generate stimulation parameters according to a neurostimulation program including a pattern of interferential stimulation configured to effect asynchronous and/or non-regular activation of nerve fibers by simultaneously delivering a first stimulation current having a first waveform with a first frequency using a first electrode configuration and a second stimulation current having a second waveform with a second frequency using a second electrode configuration. The user interface may be configured to determine the neurostimulation program and to provide the pattern of interferential stimulation with modulation of the first waveform, the second waveform, the first electrode configuration, and/or the second electrode configuration to result in a time-varying beat frequency capable of effecting the asynchronous and/or non-regular activation of the nerve fibers.
