Abstract:
|
We present a sampling algorithm for an ordered population whose elements have a measure of size. The design is a combination of the one-per-stratum and two-per-stratum stratified sampling designs. An unbiased variance estimator is presented for the unequal probability sampling design. An R program for the design is described and illustrated.
