Abstract
We consider the linear regression model in the case when the independent variables are measured with errors, while the variances of the main observations depend on an unknown parameter. In the case of normally distributed replicated regressors we propose and study new classes of two-step estimates for the main unknown parameter. We find consistency and asymptotic normality conditions for first-step estimates and an asymptotic normality condition for second-step estimates. We discuss conditions under which these estimates have the minimal asymptotic variance.
