Help with determining transfer function for a single phase inverter

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around designing a PWM controller for a single-phase inverter, focusing on the challenge of measuring current at the output leg instead of the inductor. The traditional approach involves two control loops: an inner current loop and an outer voltage loop, with current measured at the inductor and voltage across the capacitor. The poster initially seeks guidance on adapting this method to their specific setup. Ultimately, they resolve their issue by utilizing resistors in series and parallel. This highlights the importance of flexibility in control system design for inverters.

Hello everyone.

So I have been tasked with an interesting take on what seems to be a classic problem, that is, designing a PWM controller for a single phase inverter. Now, in all the books I've read this problem has two control loops, an inner current loop and an outer voltage loop. The measured current is taken at the inductor and the measured voltage is taken across the capacitor (or the output). I understand this take on the problem.

However, my problem has everything the same as the classic one, except the current needs to be measured at the output leg. Any tips or if anyone can point me in the right direction would be very much appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance. Also if this isn't an appropriate place to post this question, let me know where I could.

Nevermind, figured it out using some resistors in series and parallel.
 
Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'
I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
