Abstract
In order to provide a microwave heating device and a microwave heating control method which are capable of uniformly heating a to-be-heated object in a desired state, by employing plural feeding portions provided in a heating chamber on the basis of information about reflected electric power from the respective feeding portions; a control portion controls to supply microwave electric power from plural feeding portions to a heating chamber by operating a microwave generating portion at a heating frequency for heating a to-be-heated object, estimates a heating state for the to-be-heated object on the basis of per-unit-time increase/decrease change states of detected levels of detection signals detected by electric-power detection portions, and controls the heating frequency and the microwave electric power supplied from the feeding portions to the heating chamber.
