A method for providing a corrective modulation signal to suppress an acoustic pressure wave in an operational system. The method includes sampling the acoustic pressure wave generated in the operational system; sampling a previously generated corrective modulation signal; performing fast Fourier transform processing on the sampled acoustic pressure wave; a pair of single frequency discrete Fourier transform processing is performed on the sampled acoustic pressure wave; determining the frequency, phase and magnitude of a dominate pressure wave in the acoustic pressure wave based on the fast Fourier and discrete Fourier transform processing; generating a sinusoidal corrective modulation signal to suppress the acoustic pressure wave based on the frequency, phase and magnitude of the dominate pressure wave and the parameters of the previously generated corrective modulation signal, the corrective modulation signal being at substantially the same frequency as, and generally 180 degrees out of phase with, the acoustic pressure wave.

Systems and methods for suppressing pressure waves using corrective signal

A system and method for electronic data retrieval and processing is provided. The system includes a computer for retrieving customer-formatted data and converting the customer-formatted data into expanded data sets. The conversion may be performed by comparing the content of the customer-formatted data to supplier data, and may also include a comparison with customer profiles. The customer-formatted data sets contain incomplete requests, and the expanded data contain complete requests.
