A sensor system, device, and methods for determining the concentration of ananalyte in a sample is described. Gated voltammetric pulse sequences includingmultiple duty cycles of sequential excitations and relaxations may provide ashorter analysis time and/or improve the accuracy and/or precision of theanalysis. The disclosed pulse sequences may reduce analysis errors arisingfrom the hematocrit effect, variance in cap-gap volumes, non-steady-stateconditions, mediator background, a single set of calibration constants, under-fill, and changes in the active ionizing agent content of the sensor strip.
