WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/250741

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

The present invention makes it possible to perform an appropriate obstacle sensing process while simplifying the obstacle sensing process. A train control system 1 comprises a train control device 105 which is mounted on a train 101 and is configured to be able to communicate with a ground device 103 external to the train. The train control device 105 senses the presence of an obstacle around at least the train 101, acquires first obstacle information pertaining to the obstacle, and manages the first obstacle information in a first format. The train control device 105 also manages second obstacle information pertaining to an obstacle which is acquired from the ground device 103 and has a second format with an amount of information less than that of the first format, converts the second obstacle information in the second format into the first format, and senses an obstacle on the basis of the converted second obstacle information and the first obstacle information.
