Based on electrophysiological activity, neuroprostheses can effectively monitor and control neural activity. Currently, electrophysiological neuroprostheses are widely utilized in treating neurological disorders, particularly in restoring motor, visual, auditory, and somatosensory functions after nervous system injuries. They also help alleviate inflammation, regulate blood pressure, provide analgesia, and treat conditions such as epilepsy and Alzheimer’s disease, offering significant research, economic, and social value. Enhancing the targeting capabilities of neuroprostheses remains a key objective for researchers. Modeling and simulation techniques facilitate the theoretical analysis of interactions between neuroprostheses and the nervous system, allowing for quantitative assessments of targeting efficiency. Throughout the development of neuroprostheses, these modeling and simulation methods can save time, materials, and labor costs, thereby accelerating the rapid development of highly targeted neuroprostheses. This article introduces the fundamental principles of neuroprosthesis simulation technology and reviews how various simulation techniques assist in the design and performance enhancement of neuroprostheses. Finally, it discusses the limitations of modeling and simulation and outlines future directions for utilizing these approaches to guide neuroprosthesis design.
