Sammanfattning	Weighted systematic sampling selects units at equal spacing along a cumulative-weight axis rather than along a simple list index. By ordering the population and accumulating auxiliary size or importance weights before applying a fixed sampling interval, it combines the operational simplicity of systematic sampling with the efficiency gains of probability-proportional-to-size selection — giving larger or more important units a higher probability of inclusion while still visiting every part of the ordered frame.	Weighted sampling is a probability-based design in which units are selected with unequal probabilities proportional to a known auxiliary measure of size or importance. Sampling weights — the inverse of inclusion probabilities — are applied during analysis so that each sampled unit correctly represents the population units it stands for. The approach underpins large-scale government, health, and social surveys where simple random sampling would be inefficient.
