Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to estimate the population size of known total, using a sample that chosen using ranked set sampling technique and some of its variations; in particular, Ranked Set Sampling (RSS), Moving Extreme Ranked Set Sampling (MERSS) and Median Ranked Set(MRSS) are considered. The estimators obtained are compared with their counterparts using simple random sampling(SRS). It turned out that the estimators using RSS and its variations are more efficient than the corresponding estimators using SRS.
