Wireless communication authentication for medical monitoring device
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a housing;
a memory unit having computer executable instructions stored thereon;
a wireless communication interface;
anda processor configured to execute the computer executable instructions stored in the memory unit, wherein execution of the computer executable instructions causes the processor to;
cause a search for an external sensor while one or more user interface (UI) capabilities of the apparatus are disabled, the one or more UI capabilities being associated with the external sensor, wherein the search for the external sensor includes wireless transmission of a signal adapted to detect the external sensor, andin response to detection of the external sensor, enable one or more disabled UI capabilities associated with the external sensor and cause display of an analyte concentration associated with a measurement made by the external sensor.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for short-range low-power wireless communication of analyte information are provided. In some implementations, short-range low-power wireless communication of analyte information may include receiving an electromagnetic wireless communication signal and harvesting energy from the electromagnetic wireless communication signal. In some implementations, short-range low-power wireless communication of analyte information may include enabling capabilities associated with an external sensor in response to detecting the external sensor. In some implementations, short-range low-power wireless communication of analyte information may include detecting an analyte sample; determining an analyte concentration associated with the detected analyte sample; and transmitting an indication of the analyte concentration to an external device.
