This paper proposes a sound field reproduction algorithm based on matching the velocity vectors in a spherical listening region. Using the concept of sound field translation, the spherical harmonic coefficients of the velocity vectors in a spherical region are derived from the desired pressure distribution. The desired pressure distribution can either correspond to sources such as plane waves and point sources, or be obtained from measurements using a spherical microphone array. Unlike previous work in which the velocity vectors are only controlled on the boundary of the listening region or at discrete sweet spots, this work directly manipulates the velocity vectors in the whole listening region, which is expected to improve the perception of the desired sound field at low frequencies.
