Zusammenfassung:Neural stimulator systems with an external magnetic coil to produce changing magnetic fields is applied on the neck, in conjunction with one or more tiny injectable objects that concentrates the induced electric or magnetic field to the hypoglossal nerve and protects the user by limiting and charge-balancing the output. Additional and non-invasive neural stimulator systems apply alternating current at one skin electrode and receive oppositely rectified currents at two other skin electrodes.
