In this paper, a novel Gaussian-Student's t mixture (GSTM) distribution is proposed to model non-stationary heavytailed noises. The proposed GSTM distribution can be formulated as a hierarchical Gaussian form by introducing a Bernoulli random variable, based on which a new hierarchical linear Gaussian state-space model is constructed. A novel robust GSTM distribution based Kalman filter is proposed based on the constructed hierarchical linear Gaussian state-space model using the variational Bayesian approach. The Kalman filter and robust Student's t based Kalman filter (RSTKF) with fixed distribution parameters are two existing special cases of the proposed filter. The novel GSTM distributed Kalman filter has the important advantage over the RSTKF that the adaptation of the mixing parameter is much more straightforward than learning the degrees of freedom parameter. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed filter has better estimation accuracy than those of the Kalman filter andRSTKF for a linear state-space model with non-stationary heavy-tailed noises.
