System and method for communication of analyte data

Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for wireless communication of analyte data. In this regard, in embodiments, a mobile includes a transceiver configured to transmit and receive wireless signals. The mobile device includes circuitry operatively coupled to the transceiver. The mobile device also includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium operatively coupled to the circuitry and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the mobile device to perform a number of operations. One such operation is to obtain a derivative of a first signal received via a first link. Another such operation is to obtain a derivative of a second signal received via a second link; and. Yet another such operation is to generate a selection for connection to an analyte sensor system, based on a comparison of the derivative of the first signal and the derivative of the second signal.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for wireless communication of analyte data, the method comprising:
 authenticating a display device for a first connection by exchanging information related to authentication between an analyte sensor system and the display device;   based on authenticating the display device, the analyte sensor system periodically exchanging messaging with the display device to maintain the first connection, and   the analyte sensor system transmitting encrypted analyte data to the display device during the time the first connection is maintained.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising terminating the first connection. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 establishing a second connection between analyte sensor system and the display device; and   the analyte sensor system periodically exchanging messaging with the display device to maintain the second connection; and   the analyte sensor system transmitting encrypted analyte data to the display device during the time the second connection is maintained;   wherein, for the second connection, the periodically exchanging the messaging and the transmitting encrypted analyte data are based on authenticating the display device for the first connection.
