Download Ambisonic Decoder Equalization in Reverberant Environments via Closed-Hull Crosstalk Inversion In this work, the authors develop a higher order Ambisonic (HOA) decoder that compensates for listening room reverberation by cascading a conventional decode matrix with a crosstalk matrix derived from room impulse responses (RIR) constrained over the listener area, namely by sampling over a spherical boundary according to HOA convention. A decoder is generated for simulated RIRs of mixed specular and diffuse reverberation, and spectral and spatiotemporal energy distributions are shown for directional and diffuse HOA signals rendered through the reverberant room. Results demonstrate that the decoder renders temporally-variant directional sources with higher directivity as compared to a conventional decoder.ing Ambisonic decoders in reverberant environments using closed-hull crosstalk convolution. By modeling the acoustic path from each loudspeaker to the listener's ears via measured room impulse responses, we formulate equalization filters that compensate for room-induced distortions in the decoded signals. The proposed closed-hull approach constrains the solution to preserve perceptually relevant spatial cues while minimizing spectral coloration. Listening tests demonstrate improved externalization, timbral transparency, and localization accuracy compared to standard free-field decoding in reverberant conditions.
