Pulsar rotational and astrometric parameters can be measured with a very high precision by pulsar timing observations. The pulsar timing model, the methods to measure the pulsar parameters by least squares fitting and to estimate their covariances are briefly described. The mathematical relations between the timing residuals of a pulsar and the errors of its different parameters are derived in the...
