Try this (not sure whether you are using z or z^(-1) but this doesn't affect the basic idea below): Build a little FIR filter q = Sum[a[i]/z^i,{i,10}] Warp it. r = q /. z -> (1 - \[Lambda]/z)/(z^(-1) - \[Lambda]) Gather together as numerator over denominator. s = Together[r] Get the coefficients in the numerator.
