Abstract

Calibration approach is widely used survey sampling
that incorporates auxiliary information to increase the precision
of survey estimates. In this manuscript, we propose two new
calibration estimators of population mean in stratified sampling,
using the known auxiliary information on mean and coefficient of
variation in each stratum. A numerical example is presented to
illustrate the application and computational details of the
proposed calibration estimators. Moreover, a simulation study is
carried out to compare the performance of the proposed
calibration estimators.
