Abstract
A circuit arrangement for forming a succession of group signals in the ranging art from received signals originating from an array of adjacent signal receiving transducers, each successive group signal being associated with a respective group characteristic and being based on the signals received by a respective group of adjacent transducers forming part of the array. The succession of group signals is processed to form a representation of the mean, or average, value of a predetermined number of successive group signals, and a representation of the ratio of the value of one of the group signals of that predetermined number of signals to the mean value is produced.
