This paper presents a technique for controlling the spatial resolution of an Ambisonic sound field while preserving its overall energy. The proposed method allows to transform a stream encoded in N-order Ambisonic to a lower order resolution. The transformation can be continuously operated, indeed simulating fractional order representation of the Ambisonic stream and varying the "bluriness" of the spatial image.
