Abstract
An illustrative radio frequency (RF) power control system includes an RF transmitter configured to operate external to a recipient, a cochlear implant configured to operate internal to the recipient based on RF power received from the RF transmitter, and a processor that, while operating in a power adaptation mode during which the cochlear implant applies stimulation to the recipient: 1) receives an audio signal, 2) directs the RF transmitter to provide the RF power to the cochlear implant at a power level determined based on the audio signal and based on a power level mapping function, 3) determines an error value representing a difference between a target metric and a measured metric associated with receipt of the RF power at the cochlear implant, and 4) updates the power level mapping function based on the error value. Corresponding systems and methods are also disclosed.
