In this paper, we consider small area estimation under a multivariatelinear regression model for repeated measures data. The aim of theproposed model is to get a model which borrows strength across smallareas and over time, by incorporating simultaneously the area effectsand time correlation. The model accounts for repeated surveys, groupindividuals and random effects variations. Estimation of model pa-rameters is discussed within a restricted maximum likelihood basedapproach. Prediction of random effects and the prediction of smallarea means across time points and per group units for all time pointsare derived. The results are supported by a simulation study.
