Abstract

In this article, we propose the fractional lower-order covariance method (FLOC) for estimating the parameters of vector autoregressive moving average process (VARMA) of order p, q such that \(p, q\ge 1\) with symmetric stable noise. Further, we show the efficiency, accuracy and simplicity of our methods through Monte Carlo simulation.
