Abstract
A train control device includes an on-vehicle base station mounted on a train, base stations that can communicate with the on-vehicle base station, an on-vehicle control device controlling an operation such that the train can stop before reaching a stop limit before which the train can run safely, and ground control devices that transmit, to the train side, the stop limit calculated based on information on the current position acquired from the train side via the base stations and opening information on a turnout on the ground. The on-vehicle control device calculates a channel-reservation start pattern, which is a pattern determining a reservation start position of a communication channel of a base station as a switching target when the base station as a communication partner to the on-vehicle base station is switched and in which the reservation start position is different according to train speed and train position.
