Abstract

An on-vehicle device mounted on a train includes a second on-vehicle-side wireless communication unit that performs wireless communication with the ground side, and an on-vehicle-side ground-to-vehicle communication security unit that encrypts or decrypts wireless communication data. The on-vehicle-side ground-to-vehicle communication security unit includes an on-vehicle-side secret-key holding unit that retains a plurality of secret keys that have secret key numbers for performing encryption or decryption; an on-vehicle-side secret-key selecting unit that selects one secret key from the on-vehicle-side secret-key holding unit using a secret key number calculated using train information unique to a train; and an on-vehicle-side encryption and decryption processing unit that performs encryption or decryption using the one secret key selected by the on-vehicle-side secret-key selecting unit.
