the meaning of chip rate is unclear.

some references to chip rate appear to contradict the article.

it seems that a description of maximal length sequences (m-length sequences) would fit. these have applications in impulse response measurements of sound among other things. i am not sure if this is the same as the n-sequences link to here.

[edit] why does this exist?

I don't understand what advantages does this random noise have, what problems does it solve. Is it a way to provide security to communication? Or maybe to avoid interference with other devices?
