Abstract
A ground base device includes a schedule timetable storage unit storing a received schedule timetable periodically transmitted from the central control device; a departure-obstructed condition determination unit determining whether a departure-obstructed condition of a train is resolved and outputting departure-obstructed condition cancel signal when the departure-obstructed condition is resolved; a departure time control unit outputting departure-time appropriate signal when current time is departure time based on the schedule timetable upon receiving the departure-obstructed condition cancel signal; a departure interval control unit outputting departure-interval appropriate signal when intervals between the train and preceding and following trains are a threshold value or more upon receiving the departure-time appropriate signal; and a departure instruction signal output unit outputting a departure instruction signal upon receiving the departure-interval appropriate signal, and, when the central control device fails, the departure time control unit uses the schedule timetable received when the central control device is normal.
