We also derive optical+NIR P-W relations using V and I magnitudes from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment. We employ our new JHK_s_ data to determine an independent distance to the LMC of {mu}_LMC_=18.47+/-0.07 (statistical) mag, using an absolute calibration of the Galactic relations based on several distance determination methods and accounting for the intrinsic scatter of each technique. We also derive new NIR period-luminosity and Wesenheit relations for Cepheids in M31 using observations from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury survey. We use the absolute calibrations of the Galactic and LMC W_J,H_ relations to determine the distance modulus of M31, {mu}_M31_=24.46+/-0.20 mag. We apply a simultaneous fit to Cepheids in several Local Group galaxies covering a range of metallicities (7.7<12+log[O/H]<8.6 dex) to determine a global slope of -3.244+/-0.016 mag/dex for the W_J,H_ relation and obtain robust distance estimates. Our distances are in good agreement with recent TRGB based distance estimates and we do not find any evidence for a metallicity dependence in the NIR P-W relations.2016AJ....151...88Bhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/151/88CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/AcA/49/223 : BVI photometry of OGLE LMC Cepheids (Udalski+, 1999)J/ApJS/142/71 : BVRI observations of LMC Cepheids (Sebo+, 2002)J/A+A/404/423 : BVI photometry of Galactic Cepheids (Tammann+, 2003)J/AJ/128/2239 : JHKs photometry of 92 LMC Cepheids (Persson+, 2004)J/A+A/476/73 : Calibration of Cepheid Period/Luminosity relationJ/AcA/58/163 : VI light curves of LMC classical Cepheids (Soszynski+, 2008)J/AcA/58/313 : LMC Cepheids in OGLE and MACHO data (Poleski+, 2008)J/ApJ/679/71 : Mid-IR period-luminosity relations (Freedman+, 2008)J/MNRAS/397/933 : LMC type II Cepheids JHKs magnitudes (Matsunaga+, 2009)J/A+A/534/A95 : LMC Cepheids radial velocities (Storm+, 2011)J/ApJ/747/50 : Distance to Cepheids using the Wesenheit functionJ/ApJ/759/146 : Spitzer/IRAC photometry for 37 Galactic CepheidsJ/MNRAS/424/1807 : VISTA Magellanic Cloud Survey.
