Abstract
A microwave oven includes a heating chamber in which food to be cooked is contained, a magnetron for range-heating the food contained in the heating chamber, a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature of an atmosphere containing hot air emanating from the food being range-heated in the heating chamber, and a controller for controlling an operation of the magnetron based on fluctuations of the temperatures sensed by the temperature sensor.
