Abstract: This aerosol generation system is provided with a housing unit capable of housing a base material that contains an aerosol source, and a control unit that controls a temperature at which the aerosol source contained in the base material housed in the housing unit is heated. If a first puff in which a user inhales an aerosol generated from the aerosol source is performed, the control unit controls the temperature at which the aerosol source is heated, on the basis of information of a previous second puff.

Abstract: An inhalation device includes: a heater configured to generate aerosol by heating a substrate containing an aerosol source; and a control circuit configured to control an operation a of the heater based on a heating profile defining a time-series transition of a target temperature. The control circuit is configured to: start control of the heater in a control mode defined by the heating profile in response to a generation request for the aerosol; acquire information indicating an inhalation mode in a first period in which the heater is controlled in the control mode defined by the heating profile; and change the control mode for the heater in a second period after the first period from the control mode defined by the heating profile to a control mode based on the inhalation mode in the first period.
