This paper considers the features of coherent synchrotron radiation generated when relativistic electron bunches pass the field of short magnets. A significant contribution to the spectral and angular characteristics of radiation can be made by a factor of the limited length of the magnetic field disposed along the trajectory of the electrons. Furthermore, a substantial contribution to these features can be made by a radiation coherence factor. This work comprises the theoretical analysis of these effects and the results of experimental studies in the millimeter wavelength range
