Abstract

This research presents the development of a population mean estimator using the ranked auxiliary variables under double sampling. Some properties of the proposed estimator were studied, including bias (B) and mean square error (MSE). The efficiency of the proposed estimator was also compared with the standard estimator, namely the mean method and the ratio method. For the empirical analysis, the data of small dust particles in Bangkok in January 2019 were used, with 10,000 replicate samplings. It was found that the proposed estimator was more efficient than the standard estimator with the lowest MSE values in all studied scenarios which tended to decrease as the sample size increased. Therefore, it can be concluded that using the ranked auxiliary variables can reduce the MSE value, resulting in a more accurate estimator.
