The randomness of the PRBS Generator is giving the different results here. If one sequence has many 1’s then the power will be higher, although the overall trend is a lower power. To resolve these differences try increasing the sequence length from 128 to a much larger number. This will give more accurate results for BER and smooth out the randomness of the PRBS.
