It is experienced that auxiliary information when suitably incorporated yields more efficient and precise estimates. Mishra et al. (2017) have introduced a log type estimator for estimating unknown population mean using ancillary information in simple random sampling. Here we propose an improved log-product type estimator for population variance under double sampling. Properties of the estimators are studied both mathematically and numerically.

Using auxiliary information, a family of difference-cum-exponential type estimators for estimating the population variance of variable under study have been proposed under double sampling design. Expressions for bias, mean squared error and its minimum values have been obtained. The comparisons have been made with the regression-type estimator by using simple random sampling at both occasions in double sampling design. It has also been shown that better estimators can be obtained from the proposed family of estimators which are more efficient than the linear regression type estimator. Results have also been illustrated numerically as well asgraphically.
