Abstract
The present disclosure provides an automatic driving method, a VOBC, a TIAS, and a ZC. The method includes: sending, when a position of a target train is lost in a FAM mode and the target train is in an emergency-brake-stop state, a train message to a TIAS and fault information indicating loss of train position to a ZC, the train message including request information for a RRM mode; receiving a RRM mode instruction sent by the TIAS and a movement instruction sent by the ZC; and controlling the target train to travel in the RRM mode according to the RRM mode instruction and the movement instruction. With the technical solutions provided in the present disclosure, operation efficiency of the train can be improved.
