Abstract
A medical device communication system includes a receiver adapted to receive radio frequency (RF) signals and configured to operate in a first mode to poll for an RF signal for a first time interval to detect an element of a valid input signal during the first time interval. In response to detecting the element of a valid input signal in the first time interval, the receiver operates in a second mode to poll for the RF signal for a second time interval to analyze the RF signal over the second time interval to detect a valid modulation of the RF signal. In response to detecting a valid modulation of the RF signal during the second time interval, the receiver is enabled to establish a communication session with a transmitting device.
