1. A system for use with an electrode arrangement, comprising:

  • a neuromodulation device configured to use electrodes in the electrode arrangement to generate a neuromodulation field, the neuromodulation device including a neuromodulation generator, a neuromodulation control circuit and a storage, the storage including a stochastically-modulated neuromodulation parameter set, the stochastically-modulated neuromodulation parameter set including at least one stochastically-modulated parameter, wherein the controller configured to control the neuromodulation generator using the stochastically-modulation parameter set to generate the neuromodulation field; and

    a stochastic modulator programmed with at least one modulation model for use to stochastically modulate at least one parameter to provide the at least one stochastically-modulated parameter, wherein the stochastic modulator is configured to;

    implement stochastic process rules to determine permissible subsequent samples in a sequence of random or pseudo-random samples from the at least one modulation model; and

    use the sequence of random or pseudo-random samples with the permissible subsequent samples to stochastically modulate the at least one parameter.
