Estimation of population mean under systematic random sampling in absence and presence non-response
Abstract
In this article, we propose two new classes of estimator using transformed auxiliary variables for the estimation of systematic sample mean in absence and presence of non-response. The mathematical expressions of biases and mean square errors are determined. A numerical illustration is also performed to illustrate the performance of the proposed estimators. Based on the numerical study, the proposed estimator performs better than the usual sample estimator, regression estimator, Singh and Solanki [8], Singh et al. [9], Swain [11] and Koyuncu [3] estimators in systematic sampling.
