1. A system, comprising:

  • a controller module comprising;

    a storage device configured to store parameters defining a stimulation waveform;

    a controller configured to generate, based on the stored parameters, an output signal that includes the stimulation waveform, wherein the output signal additionally includes polarity assignments for electrodes in an implantable passive neural stimulation device;

    a modulator configured to modulate a stimulus carrier signal with the output signal to generate a transmission signal;

    one or more antennas configured to transmit the transmission signal to the implantable, passive stimulation device such that the implantable passive stimulation device uses energy in the transmission signal for operation, sets the polarities for the electrodes in the implantable, passive stimulation device based on the encoded polarity assignments, generates electrical pulses using the stimulation waveform, and applies the electrical pulses to excitable tissue.
