Abstract
A vehicle control device is provided which has enhanced robustness against a shielding object, further, which does not measure a received radio wave from a radio transmitter and which can continue, for example, automatic driving control by comparing two types of vehicle positions calculated using the radio transmitter installed outside a vehicle and a sensor mounted on the vehicle and detecting an error in order to reduce a detection error of the radio transmitter due to a failure in communication of the radio transmitter. Two types of vehicle positions calculated using the sensor mounted on the vehicle and the radio transmitter are compared, and it is determined that the radio transmitter is affected by a shielding object in a case where a temporal change of a vehicle position deviation and/or a behavior change of a vehicle position (first own vehicle position) based on the radio transmitter is detected.
