Joint inclusion probabilities for systematic sampling
Computes the joint (second-order) inclusion probabilities for systematic sampling.
UPsystematicpi2(pik)
pik |
vector of the first-order inclusion probabilities. |
Returns a NxN matrix of the following form: the main diagonal contains the first-order inclusion probabilities for each unit k in the population; elements (k,l) are the joint inclusion probabilities of units k and l, with k not equal to l. N is the population size.
