We study theoretically the behavior of a superconducting flux qubit subjected to a series of electromagnetic pulses. The possibility of controlling the system state via changing the parameters of the pulse is studied. We calculated the phase shift in the tank circuit weakly coupled to the qubit which can be measured by the impedance measurement technique. For the flux qubit we consider the possibility of estimating the relaxation rate from the impedance measurements by varying the delay time between the pulses.
