= Pseudorandom binary sequence
{wiki=Pseudorandom_binary_sequence}
A Pseudorandom Binary Sequence (PRBS) is a binary sequence that appears to be random but is generated by a deterministic process. This means that, although the sequence may exhibit properties similar to those of truly random sequences (such as having a uniform distribution of ones and zeros, or correlational properties), it is produced using a specific algorithm or mathematical formula, which allows the sequence to be reproduced exactly if the initial conditions (or seed) are known.
