System and method for wireless communication of glucose data

A method for wireless communication of analyte data, the method comprising:

• establishing a first connection between an analyte sensor system and a first display device, in order to exchange pairing information between the analyte sensor system and the first display device;
• operating in a first mode, comprising:
• the analyte sensor system periodically exchanging messages with the first display device such that the analyte sensor system and the first display device remain connected;
• and
• while the analyte sensor system and the first display device remain connected, the analyte sensor system transmitting the analyte data to the first display device, upon the analyte data becoming available for transmission;
• and
• operating in a second mode, comprising:
• periodically establishing a second connection between the analyte sensor system and the first display device;
• and
• after the second connection has been established, transmitting the analyte data to the first display device.

A system, comprising:

• a first display device;
• an analyte sensor system, comprising:
• a transceiver configured to transmit and receive wireless signals;
• and
• a processor operatively coupled to the analyte sensor and the transceiver and configured to cause the analyte sensor system to:
• establish a first connection between the analyte sensor system and the first display device, in order to exchange pairing information between the analyte sensor system and the first display device;
• maintain the first connection by periodically exchanging messages between the analyte sensor system and the first display device;
• and
• during the first connection, transmit the analyte data to the first display device, upon the analyte data becoming available for transmission;
• a second display device;
• wherein the first display device is configured to:
• establish a second connection with the second display device such that the first and second display devices remain connected;
• and
• while the first and second display devices remain connected, transmit information related to the analyte data to the second display device, after receiving the analyte data from the analyte sensor system.
