Introduction• Median is a measure which divides the population into exactly two

equal parts and it is denoted by MY .

Conclusion•We suggest new median estimators using a

known constant.•We theoretically show that these estimators are

always more efficient than classical estimators. • In the numerical examples, the theoretical

results are also supported.• In future works, we hope to adapt the estimators

proposed in this study to stratified random sampling.
