Abstract

A system for stimulating a nerve, comprising: an implantable electrode structure having a base and a plurality of electrodes; an implantable controller having a stimulator, adapted to deliver electrical pulses to the electrodes, a transmitter adapted to transmit signals to other components of the system, a receiver adapted to receive signals from other components of the system, and a processor adapted to process the various activities executed by system; and an implantable power source adapted to provide electrical power to the implantable controller. The implantable electrode structure further comprises a plurality of non-conductive branches extending from the base, and at least one of the electrodes located on the branches, thereby producing a three dimensional array of electrodes.
