Abstract
Devices, systems, and techniques are configured for independently modulating two or more concurrent signals of electrical stimulation therapy. In one example, a system includes stimulation generation circuitry and processing circuitry configured to control the stimulation generation circuitry to deliver first electrical stimulation to a patient via a first electrode combination, wherein the first electrical stimulation is defined by at least a first set of stimulation parameters selected that the first electrical stimulation exceeds a first perception threshold, and control the stimulation generation circuitry to deliver second electrical stimulation, concurrent with the first electrical stimulation, to the patient via a second electrode combination. The second electrical stimulation may be defined by at least a second set of stimulation parameters selected that the second electrical stimulation is below a second perception threshold. The processing circuitry may also determine a triggering condition and independently modulate the first and/or second electrical stimulation.
