Classification: CPC A | IPC A

Claim 9:
10. A method comprising:
delivering, by a stimulation generator, a stimulation pulse to a patient;
sensing, by sensing circuitry, an evoked compound action potential (ECAP) signal evoked from the stimulation pulse;
determining, by processing circuitry, a maximum value of a derivative of the ECAP signal;
determining, by the processing circuitry, a minimum value of the derivative of the ECAP signal;
determining, by the processing circuitry, a difference between the maximum value of the derivative and the minimum value of the derivative, wherein the difference is a characteristic value of the ECAP signal; and
determining, by the processing circuitry and using the characteristic value of the ECAP signal, at least one electrical stimulation parameter value defining an electrical stimulation therapy to be delivered to the patient.
