Hello Mostafa, filtering is a inherently lossy operation: it's an operation that involves multiplication and addition of floating point numbers. Matlab internally uses double (float64) values, whereas GNU Radio, usually, uses single precision (float32) numbers for performance reasons. Now, without knowing what kind of signal you are filtering with what kind of taps you are using with what kind of GNU Radio filters and what Matlab functions, there's nothing to guess on how these differences occur. What I *can* say though is that I've never seen an item drop in GNU Radio's runtime, and we have strong tests against that. Now, it's entirely possible that any of our filter implementations might have bugs, but I kind of doubt that. It's most probably simply numeric accuracy that kills your samples.
