The problem considered is that of finding optimum covariate designs for estimation of covariate parameters in standard split-plot and strip-plot design set-ups with the levels of the whole-plot factor in r randomised blocks. Also an extended version of a mixed orthogonal array has been introduced, which is used to construct such optimum covariate designs. Hadamard matrices, as usual, play the key role for such construction.
