Abstract

See full text

An aerosol-generating device is provided for heating an aerosol-forming substrate to form an inhalable aerosol, the device including: a cavity to removably receive at least a portion of an aerosol-generating article including the substrate and an inductively heatable susceptor configured to heat the substrate; an inductive heating arrangement to generate an alternating magnetic field within the cavity for inductively heating the susceptor when the article is received in the cavity; and a control circuitry to generate power pulses for intermittently powering on the arrangement, to determine during one or more power pulses a value of at least one property of the arrangement, the value depending on an article with a susceptor being present in or absent from the cavity, and to detect at least one of the insertion or the extraction of the article into or from the cavity based on the determined value and a predetermined threshold value.
