Truncated sequential estimation of the parameter of a first order autoregressive process with dependent noises

For a first-order non-explosive autoregressive process with dependent noise, we propose a truncated sequential procedure with a fixed mean-square accuracy. The asymptotic distribution of the estimator depends on the type of the noise distribution: it is normal when the noise has a Kotz’s distribution, while it is a mixture of normal distributions if the noise distribution is a variance mixture of normal distrbutions as well. In both cases, the convergence to the limiting distribution is uniform in the unknown parameter.
