Comments

Resembles the coefficients of the series for x/cos(x).

The first difference with sequence A009843 (expansion of x/cos(x)) occurs at a(10). An explanation can be found in the similarity of the numerators of (2*n+1)/(2^(2*n+1)-1) and the odd numbers 2n+1 (cf. A160144).

Similarly, A156769 resembles A036279 (from the expansion of tan(x)).
