Some Thoughts on Electrical Interventions for the Control of Tremor in Parkinson's Dinase

Ideas from control theory – state variable feedback, dither injection, the equivalent nonlinearity and the describing function-are applied to models developed to help understand the mechanisms of electrical interventions such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) for the alleviation of Parkinsonian tremor...
