Refined double sampling scheme with measures and application

Abstract

In this study, we propose a design for a control chart for the normal distribution using a modified double sampling scheme. The probability of in control, out of control, the average run length (ARL), and the standard deviation of run length (SDRL) of the proposed control chart is derived. The proposed control chart using the modified double sampling scheme is found to be more efficient in detecting small shifts of a process in comparison with existing, single, and double sampling control charts. The efficiency of the proposed control chart is investigated in terms of ARL and SDRL via simulation and application to a real data set.
