Abstract: Methods of compensating for ambient temperature using temperature sensors, the method comprising: sampling at a first sampling rate, with a processor, first temperature measurements from a first temperature sensor on an on-body sensor. Then determining, with a processor, first ambient-compensated temperatures from the first temperature measurements; and determining, with a processor, final ambient-compensated temperatures by applying a correction gain or factor to the first ambient-compensated temperatures. Wherein the correction gain or factor changes value at a slower rate than the sampling rate.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include methods and systems including a receiver unit of a glucose monitoring system. The receiver is configured for communicating with a remote transmitter unit coupled with a glucose sensor. The glucose sensor generates data signals associated with a glucose level. The receiver unit includes a processor, a display, and a memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the processor: access a transmitter key associated with the remote transmitter unit; transmit a command to the remote transmitter unit after verifying the transmitter key; receive communication packets from the remote transmitter unit including a first data segment with data signals indicative of the glucose level and a second data segment with information corresponding to a remaining life of the remote transmitter unit; estimate a remaining life of the remote transmitter unit; process the data signals; and output the estimated remaining life and the processed data signals for display.

Abstract: Methods and devices to monitor an analyte in body fluid are provided. Embodiments include continuous or discrete acquisition of analyte related data from a transcutaneously positioned in vivo analyte sensor automatically or upon request from a user.
