Abstract
Controlling a neural stimulus comprises applying the neural stimulus to a neural pathway in order to give rise to an evoked action potential on the neural pathway, the stimulus being defined by at least one stimulus parameter. A neural compound action potential response evoked by the stimulus is measured, and from the measured evoked response a feedback variable is derived. Loop backoff behaviour is adjusted by applying a non-identity function to the feedback variable to produce a revised feedback variable, and completing a feedback loop by using the revised feedback variable to control the at least one stimulus parameter so as to maintain the feedback variable at a setpoint. Additionally, or alternatively, loop gain can be adjusted in response to a change in the loop setpoint, and/or a logarithm of the stimulus parameter can be controlled.
