Rotation Designs for Sampling on Repeated Occasions
重复调查的轮换抽样设计
A unified finite population theory is developed for composite estimators of both the current level and change in level between consecutive occasions when a rotation sample design is employed. Explicit variance functions are given under the assumption that exponential and arithmetic correlation patterns hold over time for the characteristics of interest. Optimum values of the weight coefficients in the composite estimators, the optimum number of consecutive visits by a…
