Abstract
A method of measuring blood glucose of a patient is presented here. In accordance with certain embodiments, the method applies a constant voltage potential to a glucose sensor and obtains a constant potential sensor current from the glucose sensor, wherein the constant potential sensor current is generated in response to applying the constant voltage potential to the glucose sensor. The method continues by performing an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) procedure for the glucose sensor to obtain EIS output measurements. The method also performs a nonlinear mapping operation on the constant potential sensor current and the EIS output measurements to generate a blood glucose value.
