1. A method for prolonging life of a battery installed in an analyte sensor system configured to be worn by a user comprising:
- measuring a first analyte value at a first time;
causing a transmission of the measured first analyte value along with a predicted second analyte value;
measuring a second analyte value at a second time;
calculating a difference between the measured second analyte value and the predicted second analyte value;
determining whether the calculated difference between the measured second analyte value and the predicted second analyte value is within a predefined range;
determining that a remaining power level of the battery is less than a predetermined power level; and
responsive to the determining that the remaining power level of the battery is less than the predetermined power level and determining that the calculated difference is within the predefined range,skipping a transmission of the measured second analyte value,wherein the predefined range is a variable predefined range that is determined based at least partly on a clinical error grid.
