The continuous wave electron accelerator ELBE is upgraded to generate short and highly charged electron bunches (~100fs duration, up to 1 nC) . In the last years a prototype of an optical synchronization system using a mode locked fiber laser has been build up which is now in commissioning phase. The stabilized pulse train can be used for new methods of electron bunch diagnostics like bunch arrival time measurements with femtosecond resolution. At ELBE a Bunch arrival time monitor (BAM) has been designed and tested at the accelerator. The contribution will show the design of the BAM and some measurement results.
