The Auger Engineering Radio Array (AERA) aims to detect extensive air showers caused by the interactions of ultra-high energy cosmic rays with the Earth’s atmosphere, providing complementary information to the Auger surface, fluorescence and muon detectors. AERA, currently consisting of 124 radio stations, comprises an area of about 6 km$^{2}$. The main objective for exploiting a radio detector is to measure the fundamental air-shower parameters, such as the direction, energy and composition. We have developed reconstruction strategies and algorithms to precisely measure the air-shower parameters with high efficiency. In addition, we will present the results obtained by applying the reconstruction strategies on the experimental data taken by AERA.
