b = polyscale(a,alpha) scales the roots of a polynomial in the z-plane, where a is a vector containing the polynomial coefficients and alpha is the scaling factor.

If alpha is a real value in the range [0 1], then the roots of a are radially scaled toward the origin in the z-plane. Complex values for alpha allow arbitrary changes to the root locations.

Remark

By reducing the radius of the roots in an autoregressive polynomial, the bandwidth of the spectral peaks in the frequency response is expanded (flattened). This operation is often referred to as bandwidth expansion.
