1. An electronic device, comprising:
a wireless interface with a glucose sensor for providing glucose level readings of a user;
a storage medium storing programming instructions; and
a processor for executing the programming instructions in the storage medium to:
where a current glucose level reading for the user is successfully received over the wireless interface from the glucose sensor for a current control cycle, set insulin delivery settings for delivery of the insulin to the user from an automated insulin delivery (AID) device for the current control cycle based on predicted future glucose level readings for the user, wherein the predicted future glucose level readings are based on, at least in part, glucose level readings from the glucose sensor from previous control cycles; and
where the current glucose level reading for the user is not successfully received over the wireless interface from the glucose sensor for the current control cycle, estimate the glucose level reading that was not successfully received over the wireless interface from the glucose sensor, and set the insulin delivery settings for delivery of the insulin to the user from the AID device for the current control cycle based on the predicted future glucose level readings for the user, wherein the predicted future glucose level readings are based on the glucose level readings from the glucose sensor from previous control cycles and the estimate of the current glucose level reading that was not successfully received over the wireless interface from the glucose sensor.
