            Abstract : 
The first-order tracking properties (evolution of the mean tracking error) of weighted-least-squares (WLS) estimators applied to nonstationary system identification are investigated. The expected path of the parameter estimates is evaluated. The concept of the impulse response associated with the WLS estimator is introduced
