A control unit controls a gas-based cooking appliance having gas burners. The control unit is configured to determine user information regarding a user of the cooking appliance using an electronic user device of the user. Furthermore, the control unit is configured to control the cooking appliance in dependence of the user information.

The present disclosure relates to a flame transfer function measurement system for predicting and reducing combustion instability in which is possible to obtain at once the flame transfer function in the full frequency range by conducting the test while automatically converting the range of the frequency to be measured. Accordingly, there is no need to conduct the test repeatedly while changing the frequency, and therefore, there is an effect of obtaining the flame transfer function in the full frequency range in a very short period of time.
