Polarization Time-Series InSAR (Pol-TS-InSAR) method is an effective strategy for enhancing both the quantity and reliability of persistent scatterer (PS) pixels. However, existing researches have not fully exploited the phase information from different polarization channels nor considered the scattering mechanisms of pixels during the later stages of Pol-TSInSAR process. This study, investigates three kernels for deriving model parameter using multi-polarization data during the model parameter estimation stage during time-series InSAR analysis, namely the Temporal Coherence Optimization approach (TCO), peak temporal coherence approach (PEAK), and weight average approach (WS-MPMP). Experiment were conducted experiments using 45 sets of Sentinel-1A VV and VH polarization data to analyze the deformation of Jieyang Chaoshan International Airport. The performance of the three kernels was evaluated based on reliability, number of measurement points obtained, and computational efficiency. The experimental results indicate that the TCO method achieves marginally better performance in increasing the number of pixels and enhancing accuracy, but exhibits significantly lower computational efficiency compared to the PEAK and WS-MPMP methods.
