High-frequency amplitude-modulated sinusoidal stimulation desynchronizes neural activity and enhances naturalness of evoked sensations

B. Barra, D. S. Rose, R. Kumar, C. Gopinath, E. Mirzakhalili, S. F. Lempka, R. A. Gaunt, E. D. Glowacki, L. E. Fisher

This paper introduces a new electrical stimulation waveform that evokes more naturalistic neural activity than traditional methods, as shown by human experiments and computational modeling.
