A pulse pattern generator (11) has a pulse generating unit (12) and a lowpass filter (14), and the pulse generating unit (12) includes an amplitude-value setting unit (13, 13a). The pulse generating unit (12) generates a pulse signal formed in a step-like wave in which at least one of rise and fall of a signal is changed in a step-like manner. The lowpass filter (14) smoothes the pulse signal generated by the pulse generating unit (11), and outputs a smoothed pulse signal. The amplitude-value setting unit (13, 13a) adjusts an amplitude value of a step-like wave that forms the pulse signal in order to set a shape of an eye waveform based on a setting value when an eye pattern of the output from the lowpass filter (14) is formed. The pulse pattern generator (11) can output the pulse signal having a desired pulse pattern having the predetermined eye closure from the lowpass filter (14).

A digital signal transfer device generates from a modulating section (100) a modulated signal responsive to a digital input signal and transfers this to a demodulating section (200) through a pulse transformer (6). The demodulating section (200) generates from the modulated signal an output signal in which the digital input signal waveform is restored.

A bipolar pulse generator is implemented in a simple structure while providing a high efficiency design having a relatively low total size, while still allowing access by fibers used to control a photoconductive switch that activates the generator. The bipolar pulse generator includes a stacked Blumlein generator structure with an additional transmission line connected to a load at its near end and short-circuited at its distal end. An extra transmission line is positioned between the Blumlein generator's structure and the load provides specified limited gap between positive and negative sub-pulses. The bipolar pulse generator further includes a bended Blumlein generator structure, in which an existing intrinsic “stray” transmission line is used to provide the bipolar pulse. Still further, bipolar pulse generator includes stepped transmission lines, with additional switches positioned between steps, which are charged by different voltages.

Disclosed herein is a functional electrical stimulation (FES) device and system. In one embodiment, sequential bipolar pulse stimulation may be provided to an area of a living body via one or more electrode leads applied to the area via a FES device comprising a current pulse generating circuit comprising output nodes for operative coupling to the one or more electrode leads, and configured for operative coupling to a voltage supply. The current pulse generating circuit generally comprises positive and negative stimulation paths drawing from the voltage supply to respectively apply positive and negative currents through the area via the one or more electrode leads. In one example, the stimulation paths comprise respective capacitive elements, a capacitance ratio of which dictating, at least in part, an amplitude ratio of the positive and negative currents, wherein periodic alternative activation of the stimulation paths provides the sequential bipolar pulse stimulation. In another example, each path comprises a respective charging element and a respective activation switch, wherein each respective charging element is charged by the voltage supply and discharged upon activation of the respective activation switch to generate positive and negative current pulses respectively, such that a pulse rise time of the positive and negative current pulses is predominantly dictated by a switching speed of each respective switch. Systems and uses for these devices, and FES in general, are also described.
