A cautionary note on the Hanurav-Vijayan sampling algorithm

Résumé

We consider the Hanurav-Vijayan sampling design, which is the default method programmed in the SURVEYSELECT procedure of the SAS software. We prove that it is equivalent to the Sunter procedure, but is capable of handling any set of inclusion probabilities. We prove that the Horvitz-Thompson estimator is not generally consistent under this sampling design. We propose a conditional Horvitz-Thompson estimator, and prove its consistency under a non-standard assumption on the first-order inclusion probabilities. Since this assumption seems difficult to control in practice, we recommend not to use the Hanurav-Vijayan sampling design.
