Abstract
This paper studies the covariance structure and the asymptotic properties of Yule–Walker (YW) type estimators for a bilinear time series model with periodically time-varying coefficients. We give necessary and sufficient conditions ensuring the existence of moments up to eighth order. Expressions of second and third order joint moments, as well as the limiting covariance matrix of the sample moments are given. Strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the YW estimator as well as hypotheses testing via Wald’s procedure are derived. We use a residual bootstrap version to construct bootstrap estimators of the YW estimates. Some simulation results will demonstrate the large sample behavior of the bootstrap procedure.
