1. A method for transmitting data between a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor and one or more second communication devices configured to provide user access to analyte values and/or information derived from analyte values, comprising:
- establishing a communication channel between a first communication device coupled to a continuous analyte sensor that measures a level of analyte values in a host, and a second communication device of one or more display communication devices configured to provide user access to analyte values or information derived from the measured analyte values during a first time period within a communication window, wherein the first time period is dedicated for communication between the first and the second communication devices, wherein the first communication device processes the measured analyte values; and
establishing another communication channel between the first communication device and a third communication device of the one or more display communication devices during a second time period within the communication window, different from the first time period, and wherein the second time period is dedicated for communication between the first and the third communication devices;
wherein the communication window is within an update interval, and the method comprises;
transmitting analyte sensor data, by a transceiver of the first communication device, to the one or more display communication devices within the communication window, anddeactivating the transceiver until a next update interval.

8. A system for exchanging glucose information among communication devices, the system comprising:
-
a continuous glucose sensor configured to measure a level of analyte values in a host; a sensor electronics module operatively coupled to the continuous glucose sensor to process the measured analyte values and communicate with one or more display communication devices; a first communication device comprising a first display electronics module and a first user interface, the first user interface comprising a first input module configured to receive user input and a first display configured to display glucose information or information derived from the measured analyte values; a second communication device comprising a second display electronics module and a second user interface, the second user interface comprising a second input module configured to receive user input and a second display configured to display glucose information or information derived from the measured analyte values; wherein the sensor electronics module is configured to; establish a communication channel with the first communication device during a first time period within a communication window, wherein the first time period is dedicated for communication between the sensor electronics module and the first communication device; and
furtherestablish another communication channel with the second communication device during a second time period within the communication window, different from the first time period, wherein the second time period is dedicated for communication between the sensor electronics module and the second communication device;
wherein the communication window is within an update interval, and;transmit, by a transceiver, analyte sensor data to the one or more display communication devices within the communication window, and deactivate the transceiver until a next update interval. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
