Abstract
An automatic train control device including a ground control device that computes a target stop position of a train, and in-vehicle control devices that receive the target stop position transmitted from the ground control device and compute speed control patterns to control the speed of the trains, respectively. On a route, a radio-equipped train that wirelessly transmits train ID•train position to the ground control device and a radio-unequipped train coexist. The ground control device manages on-rail information acquired from each track circuit, the train ID•train position, a train ID, and a train type in association with each other, calculates stop track circuit information, and calculates the target stop position for the radio-equipped train.
