Sign-Perturbed Sums (SPS) is a system identification method that constructs confidence regions for the unknown system parameters. In this paper, we study SPS for ARX systems, and establish that the confidence regions are guaranteed to include the true model parameter with exact, user-chosen, probability under mild statistical assumptions, a property that holds true for any finite number of observed input-output data. Furthermore, we prove the strong consistency of the method, that is, as the number of data points increases, the confidence region gets smaller and smaller and will asymptotically almost surely exclude any parameter value different from the true one. In addition, we also show that, asymptotically, the SPS region is included in an ellipsoid which is marginally larger than the confidence ellipsoid obtained from the asymptotic theory of system identification. The results are theoretically proven and illustrated in a simulation example.
