A Novel Anti-Jamming Technique for INS/GNSS Integration Based on Black Box Variational Inference

In this paper, a novel anti-jamming technique based on black box variational inference for INS/GNSS integration with time-varying measurement noise covariance matrices is presented. We proved that the time-varying measurement noise is more similar to the Gaussian distribution with time-varying mean value than to the Inv-Gamma or Inv-Wishart distribution found by Kullback–Leibler divergence. Therefore, we assumed the prior distribution of measurement noise covariance matrices as Gaussian, and calculated the Gaussian parameters by the black box variational inference method. Finally, we obtained the measurement noise covariance matrices by using the Gaussian parameters. The experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm performs better in resisting time-varying measurement noise than the existing Variational Bayesian adaptive filter.
