Zusammenfassung:An implantable pulse generator (IPG) includes a communication module configured to send data to and receive data. A data module is coupled to the communication module and configured to manage data relating to the identity and properties of the IPG. A pulse control module is configured to control the generation of one or more pulses by the IPG. The IPG also includes an energy storage device configured to store energy and a first housing, the first housing containing at least a portion of the IPG. Further, the IPG includes an antenna coupled to the communication module. The antenna is selectively electrically coupled to the first housing.
