What does the integral operator do in the described algorithm?
What does the integral operator do in the described algorithm?
- Produces an actuator signal based on the history of the previous errors (correct)
- Acts as a proportional multiplier in a linear way
- Anticipates the next change based on the slope of the error function
- Increases the intensity of the signal until it is large enough to be used by the actuator
What is the role of the actuator in the context of this algorithm?
What is the role of the actuator in the context of this algorithm?
- It increases the intensity of the signal until it is large enough to be used by the actuator
- It operates as a final control element in contact with the process
- It produces an actuator signal based on the history of the previous errors
- It is an electromechanical device that takes the actuation signal and converts it into motion (correct)
