Abstract:
This paper deals with the inference of finite populations quantiles by using auxiliary information. The population information
considered on the proposed estimatiors is a population quantile of the auxiliary variable with the same order as that of the
quantile of the main variable to be estimated. A simulation study based on three real finite populations is performed and
comparisons of the proposed estimators with other common estimators for quantile estimation are carried out.
