Abstract
    Let Y=Xβ0+U be a truncated linear regression model, where β0 is a unknown parameter and U is independent of X with mean 0 and unknown cumulative distribution F. the datum (X,Y) is observed only if W≤t(known). In this paper, β0 is estimated by Fourier transformation method, and it is shown that the estimate of β0 is strongly consistent and asymptotically normal.
