Faint ringing sound on my iPad.

Faint ringing sound like a telephone call. It does not seem to be connected to any app. Just rings a few times. Driving me crazy?

iMac, macOS 10.12

Thank You so much Katana- San for assisting me. Embarrassed to admit but I think I found the answer. I am a bit older and a tad lazy in setting up my iphone. After checking I figured out it was in my settings/notifications/ sounds = "radar" just like a faint phone call that faded. It was just notifying me of some message. My fix, I hope, is to shut off (almost) all notifications! There that feels better.

Thanks again, what a community.
