Abstract

Embodiments of the present application provide a method and a device for controlling train formation tracking, the method comprising: obtaining a current distance between a first train and a second train in a train formation, wherein the first train is adjacent to the second train and located behind the second train; determining a target tracking mode of the first train based on the current distance, wherein the target tracking mode is one of a speed tracking mode, a distance tracking mode and a braking mode; and tracking the second train, by the first train based on the target tracking mode. Tracking efficiency is improved according to the method of the embodiments of the present application.
