We investigate the problem of estimation of the drift parameter θ of the fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process dXt=θXtdt+ϵdZtq, H, X0=x0, 0≤t≤1, where the process Ztq, H, 0≤t≤1 is a Hermite process and ϵ is a small noise. We study the asymptotic properties of the minimum L1-norm estimator θϵ∗=argminθ∫01|Xt−xt (θ) |dt as ϵ→0. Here xt (θ) =x0expθt. We prove that the estimator is consistent and that the random variable ϵ−1 (θϵ∗−θ) has a limiting distribution as ϵ→0.
