Abstract
A system and method for predicting an excitation pattern of a deep brain stimulation (DBS) from monitored bioelectrical signals includes an apparatus having a housing having a signal input and a signal output and an electrical circuit disposed within the housing. The electrical circuit is electrically coupled between the signal input and the signal output and is configured to receive bioelectrical signals corresponding to an excitation signal transmitted by a pulse generator during a DBS. The electrical circuit is also configured to convert the bioelectrical signals into digital logic pulses, predict a future timing pattern of the excitation signal from the digital logic pulses, and generate an output from the future timing pattern, the output comprising a log of time stamps predictive of future active transmission periods of neurological excitation.
