What Does PRN Stand For?
PRN stands for Pseudo Random Noise
PRN, or Pseudo Random Noise, refers to a sequence of numbers that mimics the properties of a random sequence but is generated by a deterministic process. It is commonly used in various applications such as telecommunications, cryptography, and simulation, where the appearance of randomness is essential for effective performance, yet requires reproducibility for analysis and testing. The characteristics of PRN sequences facilitate functions such as signal processing, error correction, and secure communication.
