Abstract

Techniques are described determining electrodes that are proximate or distal to location of an oscillatory signal source in a patient based on current source densities (CSDs). Processing circuitry may determine, for one or more electrodes of a plurality of electrodes, respective time-varying measurements of CSDs, aggregate, for the one or more electrodes of the plurality electrodes, the respective time-varying measurements of the CSDs to generate respective average level values for the one or more electrodes of the plurality of electrodes, determine, for one or more electrodes of the plurality of electrodes, respective phase-magnitude representations of the time-varying measurements of the CSDs. The respective phase-magnitude representations are indicative of respective magnitudes and phases of a particular frequency component of respective time-varying measurements of the CSDs. The particular frequency component is a frequency component having a largest transform coefficient in a time-varying measurement of a CSD having a largest average level value.
