In this paper, we have derived the probability density function of the size-biased p-dimensional Rayleigh distribution and studied its properties. Its suitability as a survival model has been discussed by obtaining its survival and hazard functions. We also discussed Bayesian estimation of the parameter of the size-biased p-dimensional Rayleigh distribution. Bayes estimators have been obtained by taking quasi-prior. The loss functions used are squared error and precautionary.
