Abstract
An alterphasic inverting stimulation strategy for use with a multichannel cochlear implant system consumes less power than similar strategies, yet provides better sound quality. The alterphasic inverting strategy is a strategy wherein stimulation pulses are strictly sequential, and wherein the timing and polarity of the channels is chosen such that positive and negative pulses are alternating in time in accordance with a defined pattern that staggers application of the pulses spatially across all the channels and inverts the polarity of pulses that are near each other either spatially or in time.
