Assignee: THE FEINSTEIN INSTITUTES FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH
Field: Medical technology (Instruments)
Classification: CPC A | IPC A

Claim 4:
5. The system of claim 2, wherein the first set of signal parameters includes a pulse width of the electrical signals and an amplitude of the electrical signals, and wherein the controller is further configured to:
control the pulse generator to increase the pulse width of the electrical signals while at least one of the PSIs and the NSIs associated with the afferent A-type fibers increases,
set a preferred pulse width for afferent A-type fibers to the pulse width that causes neither the PSIs nor the NSIs associated with the afferent A-type fibers to increase,
control the signal generator to increase, subsequent to setting the preferred pulse width, the amplitude of the electrical signal while at least one of the PSIs and the NSIs associated with the afferent A-type fibers increases,
set a preferred amplitude for afferent A-type fibers to the amplitude that causes neither the PSIs nor the NSIs associated with the afferent A-type fibers to increase;
wherein the preferred set of signal parameters includes the preferred pulse width for afferent A-type fibers and the preferred amplitude for afferent A-type fibers.
