The present paper deals with the robust prediction of finite population total under the superpopulation model G_R. The design is de-emphasized while developing these predictors under the superpopulation model and making comparison among all resistant estimators. The suggested proposals involve reweighed iterative algorithm for Robust Prediction. The discussion also involves the calculation of asymptotic bias and variance in terms of the influence function computed for these predictors. Two populations have been considered for simulation study to judge the performance of proposed predictors with conventional and model based existing alternatives. (original abstract)
