Abstract 

The Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process with reflection, which has been the subject of an enormous body of literature, both theoretical and applied, is a process that returns continuously and immediately to the interior of the state space when it attains a certain boundary. In this work, we are mainly concerned with the study of the asymptotic behavior of the trajectory fitting estimator for nonergodic reflected Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes, including strong consistency and asymptotic distribution. Moreover, we also prove that this kind of estimator for ergodic reflected Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes does not possess the property of strong consistency.
