  In this paper, we discuss bunch length measurement based on coherent transition radiation for 10s femtosecond electron bunches with of several MeV energy and several pC charge. The ultrashort bunch length is obtained by velocity bunching using a compact dual slot resonantly coupled linac located after an RF photoinjector. Strong focusing with a solenoid is required to enhance the radiation generation. Filters are used to reconstruct coherent transition radiation spectrum. The transverse and longitudinal form factors are also studied with simulation.
