Abstract An experimental setup for the generation of monochromatic undulator radiation at the laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) in Jena using a transverse gradient undulator (TGU) is planned. Proper matching of the betatron functions and the dispersion of the electron beam to the undulator is essential. Therefor a beam transport system with strong focusing magnets and chromatic correction of these magnets is required. As a first step, a linear beam transport system without chromatic correction was assembled at the LWFA. With this setup the electron beam’s dispersion and the beta function of one selected energy are matched to the required parameters at the TGU. This contribution presents the experimental results of these measurements.
