  We study the following model: 
  <img alt="" src="Edit_506a0f8a-bb1c-4469-8604-9b054582c2a2.jpg" />. The aim is to estimate the distribution of 
  <em>X</em> when only 
  <img alt="" src="Edit_4cc82eba-be3e-4d9a-9eb7-59c82c157676.jpg" /> are observed. In the classical model, the distribution of 
  <img alt="" src="Edit_29a52c10-66b2-4076-a7f0-19c6cee18b33.bmp" /> is assumed to be known, and this is often considered as an important drawback of this simple model. Indeed, in most practical applications, the distribution of the errors cannot be perfectly known. In this paper, the author will construct wavelet estimators and analyze their asymptotic mean integrated squared error for additive noise models under certain dependent conditions, the strong mixing case, the 
  <em>β</em>-mixing case and the 
  <em>ρ</em>-mixing case. Under mild conditions on the family of wavelets, the estimator is shown to be 
  <img alt="" src="Edit_25fde5b8-452f-45d6-9fc9-c1023ee567dd.jpg" />-consistent and fast rates of convergence have been established.

Introduction</title><p>In practical situations, direct data are not always available. One of the classical models is described as follows:</p><disp-formula id="scirp.62839-formula212"><graphic  xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/2-5301029x10.png"  xlink:type="simple"/></disp-formula><p>where <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/2-5301029x11.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> stands for the random samples with unknown density <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/2-5301029x12.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> and <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/2-5301029x13.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> denotes the i.i.d. random noise with density g. To estimate the density <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/2-5301029x14.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> is a deconvolution problem. Among the nonparametric methods of deconvolution, one can find estimation by model selection (e.g. Comte, Rozenhole and Taupin [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref1">1</xref>] ), wavelet thresholding (e.g. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref2">2</xref>] ), kernel smoothing (e.g. Carroll and Hall, [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref3">3</xref>] ), spline deconvolution or spectral cut-off (e.g. Johannes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref4">4</xref>] ) and Meister [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref5">5</xref>] basically on the effect of noise misspecification. However, a problem frequently encountered is that the proposed estimator is not everywhere positive, and therefore is not a valid probability density.</p><p>Sometimes, this problem can be circumvented by repeated observations of the same variable of interest, each time with an independent error. This is the model of panel data (see for example Li and Vuong [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref6">6</xref>] , Delaigle, Hall and Meister [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref7">7</xref>] , or Neumann [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref8">8</xref>] and references therein). On the other hand, there are many application fields where it is not possible to do repeated measurements of the same variable. So, information about the error distribution can be drawn from an additional experiment: a training set is used by experimenters to estimate the noise distribution. Think of <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/2-5301029x15.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> as a measurement error due to the measuring device, then preliminary calibration measures can be obtained in the absence of any signal X (this is often called the instrument line shape of the measuring device).</p><p>Odiachi and Prieve [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref9">9</xref>] study the effect of additive noise in Total Internal Reflection Microscopy (TIRM) experiments. This is an optical technique for monitoring Brownian fluctuations in separation between a single microscopic sphere and a flat plate in aqueous medium. See Carroll and Hall [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref3">3</xref>] , Devroye [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref10">10</xref>] , Fan [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref11">11</xref>] , Liu and Taylor [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref12">12</xref>] , Masry [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref13">13</xref>] , Stefanski and Carroll [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref14">14</xref>] , Zhang [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref15">15</xref>] , Hesse [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref16">16</xref>] , Cator [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref17">17</xref>] , Delaigle and Gijbels [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref18">18</xref>] for mainly kernel methods and Koo [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref19">19</xref>] for a spline method, Efromovich [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref20">20</xref>] for particular strategy in supersmooth case and Meister (2004), on the effect of noise misspecification.</p><p>In this paper, we extend Geng and Wang [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.62839-ref21">21</xref>] (Theorems 4.1 and 4.2) for certain dependent. More precisely, we prove that the linear wavelet estimator attains the standard rate of convergence i.e. the optimal one with additive noise for more realistic and standard dependent conditions as plynomial strong mixing dependence, the b-mixing dependence and r-mixing dependence. The properties of wavelet basis allow us to apply sharp probabilistic inequalities which improve the performance of the considered linear wavelet estimator.</p><p>The organization of the paper is as follows. Assumptions on the model are presented in Section 2. Section 3 is devoted to our linear wavelet estimator and a general result. Applications are set in Section 5, while technical proofs are collected in Section 6.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2.
