A novel variational Bayesian (VB)-based adaptive Kalman filter (AKF) is proposed to solve the filtering problem of a linear system with unknown probability of measurement loss. The sum of two likelihood functions is transformed into an exponential multiplication form, and the state vector, the Bernoulli random variable and the probability of measurement loss are jointly inferred based on the VB approach. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed AKF as compared with the existing filtering algorithms with unknown probability of measurement loss.
