What is PID control?
And what about the integral term?
The integral term sums up the error signal over time, and is designed to eliminate steady-state errors that may occur with proportional control alone. It is calculated by multiplying the error signal by the time that has passed since the last measurement, and then adding it to the previous integral value. The integral term provides continuous adjustment for small errors and smoothens out the control signal.
