Summary:
The paper deals with two Mises distributions on the circle with unknown mean directions and a common concentration parameter that is known. The likelihood rule and the plug-in rule are examined. For the statistic of the plug-in rule, the moment generating function is given and a method of obtaining the moments is proposed.
