The problem of estimating mean and covariances of a multivariate normally distributed
random vector has been studied in many forms. This paper focuses on the estimators
proposed by Ohlson et al.(2011) for a banded covariance structure with m-dependence. We
rewrite the estimator when m= 1, which makes it easier to analyze. This leads to an
adjustment, and an unbiased estimator can be proposed. A new and easier proof of
consistency is then presented.
