We consider the problem of the control of transport in higher-dimensional periodic structures by applied ac fields. In a generic crystal, transverse degrees of freedom are coupled, and this makes the control of motion difficult to implement. We show, both with simulations and with an analytical functional expansion on the driving amplitudes, that the use of quasiperiodic driving significantly suppresses the coupling between transverse degrees of freedom. This allows a precise control of the transport, and does not require a detailed knowledge of the crystal geometry.
