Abstract: Even if any failure occurs in radio in the regular safety, confirmation of train existence on-rail and safety control can be continued by a backup system in the substitutive safety. To a signaling safety system that by ground-train communication by radio in the regular safety using a base station 102 and an antenna 107, the position of each of cars 100 is notified to a ground train controller 101 as information of existence on-rail from the cars 100 and on the basis of the information of existence on-rail, information of speed restriction is transmitted from the controller 101 to each of the cars 100, a substitutive safety system that when each of the cars 100 approaches its specific range, by communication between ground communication devices 103 and 104 and an on-train communication device which are installed so as to communicate with each other, car information from each of the cars 100 can be received by the controller is newly added.

Abstract: In the state that a train moves from a track circuit 3T toward a track circuit 5T, and a train detection signal TD1 is supplied from the boundary between the track circuits 3T and 5T to the track circuits 3T and 5T, and the train detection signal TD1 is received by the train, if the signal intensity is suddenly reduced greatly immediately after the axle of the train passes the boundary between the track circuits 3T and 5T, it can be decided that the train passes the boundary between the track circuits 3T and 5T. Therefore, if absolute position information of the track circuit 5T is preserved beforehand in the train, the movement distance calculated from pulse output of a speed generator is corrected (replaced) in the absolute position information of the track circuit 5T, and hereafter is updated by the pulse output, thus the position of the own train can be easily detected as a movement distance.

Abstract: In an automatic train stop system in which a track circuit 3 is divided into track circuit sections 1T, 2T and 3T, and a digitized train control information telegram (ATS telegram) 8 is transmitted through the track circuit sections on carriers having different frequencies, a carrier sensor 12 mounted on a train 5 receives a carrier in the track circuit 3 and detects a track circuit boundary 31 by detecting a level change of the carrier, whereby an onboard system grasps the position thereof and controls the train 5 based on the information of the ATS telegram 8.

Abstract: In order to propose a method of promptly judging movement of a train between block sections with a minimum number of transponders, an on-ground train control part for controlling operation of a train; an on-ground communication means capable of performing communication of information by coming within a specified range; and a sending-and-receiving part capable of sending the information received by the on-ground communication device to the on-ground train control part and receiving the information sent from the on-ground train control part, are provided, thereby, a position of presence of train is grasped by receiving a speed of the train using the on-ground communication means when the on-train communication means attached to the train comes near.

Abstract: A train control method and apparatus for controlling the movement of trains with high safety by detecting trains on sections of track by an electronic blocking system. A wayside communication element (wayside transponder) 5 is placed in each block section on a track on which a train 1 runs. A cab communication element (cab transponder) 3 which can communicate with the wayside communication elements on the track is placed on the train 1. When receiving a train identifier (ID) from a train, a wayside control device transmits the current position information and the stop position information to the train. The cab communication element of the train 1 receives the current position information and the stop position information, creates a protection speed pattern between the current train position and the stop position from the received information, and limits the speed of the train 1 by the protection speed pattern.

The state transformation section has such a configuration that a nonlinear function such as a round function of a block cipher sufficiently evaluated as to the cryptographic security and implementation.

Abstract: A support system for recovering a train in which the amount of information to be transmitted from the train to a train-running management system and maintenance factory can be reduced. At the time of transmitting information on a failure from the train to a plurality of ground facilities, information is analyzed and processed in the train according to different transmission destinations, and necessary information is transmitted to the ground facilities. Thereby the amount of communication between the ground facilities and train can be made small and the amount of information to be processed in the ground facilities can be reduced.
