Question 41
Open questionINMCQ2 marksNeeds review
A proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller is employed to stably control a plant with transfer function
. Now, the proportional gain is increased by a factor of 2, the integral gain is increased by a factor of 3, and the derivative gain is left unchanged. Given that the closed-loop system continues to remain stable with the new gains, the steady-state error in tracking a ramp reference signal ________Your answerChoose one option.
