1. A system for measuring an approximate number among a number of known objects in a particular place, comprising:
- a signal transmission means arranged in each of the objects to be measured for emitting a PN signal of a specific group, wherein a peak of the PN signal can be generated at a receiving device in a predetermined period; and
a signal receiving means for receiving the PN signal transmitted from said signal transmission means, said signal receiving means having a peak detection means and a calculation means for obtaining an output corresponding to the quantity of the peaks of the PN signal emitted from said objects and for counting the peaks of self-correlation of the PN signal.

Abstract
An approximate figures measuring system includes a signal transmission device and a signal receiving device. The signal transmission device is arranged in each of any objects to be measured and emits a signal from which a peak can be generated at a receiving device in a predetermined period. The signal receiving device receives the signal transmitted from the signal transmission device and includes a peak detection circuit and a calculation circuit for obtaining an output corresponding to the number of the peaks of the signals from the objects.
