The offset introduced by proportional controller with gain Kc in response of first order system can be reduced by ____________________?

Correct answer: B. Introducing integral control

  • A. Reducing value of Kc
  • B. Introducing integral control
  • C. Introducing derivative control
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

Proportional-only control leaves a steady-state offset when a sustained error is needed to produce the required output. Integral action accumulates this error and removes the offset, whereas derivative action mainly improves response to changing error.
