contents In this work, we investigate a joint fitting approach based on theoretical models of power spectra associated with density-field reconstruction. Specifically, we consider the matter auto-power spectra before and after baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) reconstruction, as well as the cross-power spectrum between the pre- and post-reconstructed density fields. We present redshift-space models for these three power spectra at the one-loop level within the framework of standard perturbation theory (SPT), and perform a joint analysis using three types of power spectra, and quantify their impact on parameter constraints. When restricting the analysis to wavenumbers $k \leq 0.2\,h\,\mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$ and adopting a smoothing scale of $R_{\mathrm{s}} = 15\,h^{-1}\,\mathrm{Mpc}$, we find that incorporating all three power spectra improves parameter constraints by approximately $11\%\text{--}16\%$ compared to using only the post-reconstruction power spectrum, with the Figure of Merit (FoM) increasing by $10.5\%$. These results highlight the advantages of leveraging multiple power spectra in BAO reconstruction, ultimately enabling more precise cosmological parameter estimation.
