AB  - In this paper, we propose a class of Hartley-Ross type unbiased esti-mators for estimating the finite population mean of the study variableunder ranked set sampling (RSS), when population mean of the auxil-iary variable is known. The variances of the proposed class of unbiasedestimators are obtained to first degree of approximation. Both theo-retically and numerically, the proposed estimators are compared withsome competitor estimators, using three different data sets. It is iden-tified through numerical study that the proposed estimators are moreeffcient as compared to all other competitor estimators.
