Patent attributes
An example of a system may include electrodes on at least one lead configured to be operationally positioned for use in modulating a volume of neural tissue, where the neural tissue has an activation function. The system may further include a neural modulation generator configured to deliver energy using at least some electrodes to generate a modulation field within the volume of neural tissue. The neural modulation generator may be configured to use a programmed modulation parameter set to generate the modulation field. The programmed modulation parameter set having values selected to control energy delivery using the at least some electrodes to achieve an objective function specific to the activation function of the volume of neural tissue to promote uniformity of a response to the modulation field in the volume of neural tissue along a span of the at least one lead.
