  The ANKA storage ring is operated frequently with low momentum compaction lattices to produce short bunches for the generation of coherent synchrotron radiation in the THz range. The bunch length can be varied in steps from one centimeter down to the sub millimeter level. These low alpha optics are modeled by using the Matlab based tools, Accelerator Toolbox (AT) and LOCO. The results are compared with measurements such as orbit response matrices, dispersion and chromaticity. This paper provides results of a study on the feasibilities as well as limitations of the measurements and calculations.
