Flow vectors are derived with beam-swinging software to study and characterize the use of single-station radar for mapping ionospheric E-region irregularity drift patterns. Merged velocity vectors from the two radar sites are compared to flow-direction estimates computed on beam-swinging software from radar data. Deviations are found in the data treated with the beam-swinging program due to curvatures and gradients in the ionospheric flow patterns measured with the system for a radar-auroral experiment. Case studies of L shell fitting are examined to point out the limitations of using single-station data to measure the irregularity drift patterns. Beam-swinging is shown to be suitable for comparison with supporting experimental data, but bistatic radar data from two distinct sites are required for well resolved electric-field and morphological characterizations.
