  • Abstract
    A linear discrete-time system with interrupted observations is considered. The interrupted observation mechanism is expressed in terms of a two-state Markov chain. The transition probability matrix of the Markov chain is unknown and is assumed to belong to a compact set. A novel scheme, called truncated maximum likelihood estimation, is proposed for consistent estimation of the transition probabilities. Conditions for weak consistency are investigated.
