Abstract

Auxiliary information is very important in constructing estimators for the population parameters for increasing the efficiency different sampling schemes. In this paper, we consider the problem of estimation of population mean using information on auxiliary variables in systematic sampling. We derive the expressions for the bias and mean squared error (MSE) of the suggested estimators up to the 1st degree of approximation. Proposed estimators are compared with usual mean estimator in systematic sampling scheme theoretically as well as empirically.
