Abstract
An analyte monitoring system and methods for extending the life of a sensor in an analyte monitoring system. The analyte sensor may include an analyte sensor and a transceiver. The analyte sensor may include an indicator, a detector, and an amplifier. The indicator may be configured to exhibit one or more detectable properties based on an amount or concentration of an analyte in proximity to the indicator. The detector may be configured to detect one or more of the detectable properties and output an analyte signal indicative of the amount or concentration of the analyte in proximity to the indicator. The amplifier may be configured to amplify the analyte signal. The transceiver may be configured to adjust a gain of the amplifier. The transceiver may be configured to additionally or alternatively adjust a drive current of a light source of the analyte sensor.
