Abstract

Recently, the strong consistency and asymptotic distribution for the maximum consecutive pairwise likelihood
estimators (MCPLE) have been established in the linear time series models. In this paper, the weak convergence
of the maximum weighted pairwise likelihood estimator (MWPLE) of the parameters of the AR(1) models is
established by using the concept of
 
􀜮􀬶 convergence (convergence in mean square).
