New Estimator for AR (1) Model with Missing Observations

Abstract

: In this paper, new form of the parameters of AR(1) with constant term with missing observations has been derived by using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method, Also, the properties of OLS estimator are discussed, moreover, an extension of Youssef [18]has been suggested for AR(1) with constant with missing observations. A comparative study between (OLS), Yule-Walker (YW) and modification of the ordinary least squares (MOLS) is considered in the case of stationary and near unit root time series, using Monte Carlo simulation.
