The correct answer is B. Integral error compensation minimizes steady state error.
Integral error compensation is a type of control system feedback that helps to reduce the steady state error of a system. Steady state error is the difference between the desired output of a system and the actual output of the system when the system has reached a steady state. Integral error compensation works by adding a term to the control signal that is proportional to the integral of the error signal. This term helps to drive the error signal to zero, which in turn minimizes the steady state error.
The other options are incorrect. Option A is incorrect because integral error compensation actually minimizes steady state error. Option C is incorrect because integral error compensation does have an effect on steady state error. Option D is incorrect because only option B is correct.
