摘要:Longitudinal surveys are very common in sampling overinterval of times to estimatethe aggregate level of populationmeansat given point of time.In thepresent paper, theestimation methodshave beendevelopedfor small areain longitudinal surveysusing small areaestimation (SAE) techniques. Direct, synthetic and composite estimatorshave beenproposed toestimate thepopulationmean of small areaat given point of time.We also provide detailed ofmean squareerrors(MSE)of theproposed estimator.Anempirical study is carried out to showthe properties of the proposed estimators
