Abstract
A method of user characterization for an aerosol provision system is disclosed herein. The system is configured to generate aerosol from an aerosol generating material for user inhalation. The method involves detecting an airflow associated with the start of a user inhalation upon the aerosol provision system, calculating a gradient for the air flow during a first period following the start of inhalation, predicting at least one of an inhalation intensity and duration, based upon the calculated gradient, and adjusting one or more operational parameters of the aerosol provision system in response to the at least one predicted inhalation intensity and duration.
