Keywords:
stochastic process; least squares estimators; quadratic invariant estimators; linear regression model; unknown covariance function; sufficient condition for consistency
Summary:
The least squres invariant quadratic estimator of an unknown covariance function of a stochastic process is defined and a sufficient condition for consistency of this estimator is derived. The mean value of the observed process is assumed to fulfil a linear regresion model. A sufficient condition for consistency of the least squares estimator of the regression parameters is derived, too.
