We study a model of recurrent diffusion on \({\mathbb{R}}\), solution of: \[ dX_ t=b(\theta,X_ t)dt+\sigma dW_ t \] where W is a standard Brownian motion starting in zero. We want to estimate the unknown parameter \(\theta\) when we observe the zero crossing times of X up to the time t. We study the asymptotic properties of the estimators based on these observations when t goes to infinity.
