Methodological analysis demonstrates improved systematic sampling estimation in finite populations with linear trends, indicating reduced expected mean squared error with proposed schemes.
In the case of a finite population with a linear trend, improvements in estimation procedures are suggested for several well-known systematic samplingschemes. The use of the least squares regression estimator is examined and a sampling scheme which reduces its expected mean squared error is proposed.
