2. A method for transmitting data between a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor and a second communication device configured to provide user access to analyte values and/or information derived from analyte values, comprising:
-
activating a transceiver of a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor at a first time; establishing a two-way communication channel with the second communication device using an authentication scheme; sending analyte sensor data to the second communication device using the two-way communication channel; deactivating the transceiver of the first communication device at a second time; and periodically repeating the activating, establishing, sending and deactivating, wherein a difference between the first time and the second time is less than or equal to one minute, and wherein the periodic repeating is performed at least once every 30 minutes. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. 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 only with a primary device of a one or more second communication devices during a first time period within a communication window; and establishing a communication channel with one or more secondary devices of the one or more second communication devices only during a second time period different from the first time period. - View Dependent Claims (11)

12. A method for providing analyte sensor measurements from a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor to a second communication device configured to provide user access to analyte values and/or information derived from analyte values, the method comprising:
-
receiving, from the first communication device, a request from a second communication device for previous analyte sensor measurements in addition to analyte sensor measurements of a scheduled analyte sensor measurement transmission; and transmitting to the second communication device from the first communication device a data set of analyte sensor measurements corresponding to a pre-determined time interval that includes the requested previous analyte sensor measurements. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)
