sunterpi: Inclusion probabilities for Sunter sampling

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

View source: R/sunterpi.R

Description

The function computes the inclusion probabilities for Sunter sampling.

Usage

1
sunterpi(x, n)

Arguments

x

the vector of values of the auxiliary variable (measure of size)

n

the sample size

Details

Citing the reference, "For the most part of the population, Sunter's scheme gives the inclusion probability π_k strictly proportional to x_k. For a small portion of the population, corresponding to the elements with the smallest x_k-values, equal, rather than x_k-proportional, inclusion probability is applied to gain simplicity."

Value

a vector that contains the first-order inclusion probabilities for each unit k in the population; N is the population size.

# note that the inclusion probabilities are not exactly proportional
# to the measures of size

# theoretical inclusion probabilities
pik<-n*x/sum(x)
