Need some insight about a plot found in the Fundamentals of power electronics second edition book.
I don't really understand why it is written like this. Left side \( \frac{I}{V_{g}/R} \) can be rewritten to \( \frac{1}{D'^{2}} \) so it is basically "just" duty cycle.

The book states that the equation plotted is \( I=\frac{V_{g}}{D'^{2} R} \)

I know I'm missing something obvious but my mind just jammed in this, so if you can help, please enlighten me.

Its on page 25 of fundamentals of power electronics second edition (Robert W Erickson, D. Maksimovic) 2.3 boost converter example chapter
Thank you!
