Bayesian filtering and smoothing problems with unknown measurement noise covariance are investigated for linear Gaussian systems. The measurement noise covariance is assumed to be inverse Wishart distributed. A Bayesian filter and smoother calculating the joint posteriors for the state and the measurement noise covariance are derived by using a scale Gaussian approximation of t-distribution and moment matching. The proposed filter and smoother are non-iterative unlike the existing Bayesian solutions in the literature. The performance of the proposed algorithms is illustrated on a two-dimensional target tracking scenario. The simulation results show that the proposed filter and smoother have similar performance as the state of the art solutions with lower computational load.
