Best thing would be to write it down on state space form. As it is an inverter 
I would guess you could modify duty cycle each period and in such case duty 
cycle should be an input and you would make an average model over one cycle, 
there is probably some dead time which may or may not be important. In case it 
is non linear you also to have to linearize around curent working point.

Then written on state space form you could use lqr(...), lqg(...) or acker(...) 
functions in Octave to make you control loop while bode(...) and nyquist(...) 
functions could be used for stability analysis. In cause you did not att dead 
time in state space model you could add a phase delay then stability is checked.

Think I got it correct.
