Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method, apparatus and computer program are disclosed and can include applying a pulse edge to a resonant circuit including an inductive element (for inductively heating a susceptor) and a capacitor, wherein the applied pulse edge induces a pulse response between the capacitor and the inductive element of the resonant circuit, wherein the pulse response has a resonant frequency; determining a period or frequency of the resonant frequency of the pulse response; and converting the determined period or frequency into a distance based, at least in part, on a distance gradient and a first calibration measurement. The distance is based on a separation between the inductive element and the susceptor and the first calibration measurement includes the separation between the inductive element and the susceptor at a calibration temperature.
