Abstract

A radio train control system controls the trains on tracks on which track circuits are built, and includes: ground radio devices performing radio communication with the trains and acquiring position information of the trains; field devices acquiring track circuit state information indicating whether the track circuit is ON or OFF; ground base devices receiving the position information and the track circuit state information and transmitting control information to the trains; and an on-track vehicle control device receiving the position information and the track circuit state information and managing on-track information. The ground radio devices and the field devices have transmission paths connected with the on-track vehicle control device without the ground base devices, and the on-track vehicle control device can transmit the control information to the trains through the transmission paths when the ground base device is out of order.
