The present disclosure relates to a train-ground interlocking method and system for rail transit train operation control. In the train-ground interlocking method, a train is taken as a subject of wayside and carborne resource management, and the train actively calculates a required resource according to a “movement mission”, applies to a wayside at an appropriate time and location, uses the resource after obtaining a resource use authority, and actively releases the resource after use of the resource; and once the wayside allocates the resource to one of other trains, the resource cannot be reallocated without being released by the train.

The resource authority is configured to be owned by a single onboard control unit. The onboard control unit possessing the resource authority is configured to seize or release the track resources corresponding to the resource authority and to control the track resources corresponding to the resource authority.

An ad hoc communication network includes at least one vehicle-side radio device connected to a vehicle, a plurality of track-side radio devices installed on a track of the vehicle, and a monitoring and control unit, which is connected to at least one track-side radio device for communication. The track-side radio devices communicate, without logical connection with other track-side radio devices located within the radio range and with the vehicle-side radio device and forward received data to other track-side radio devices located within the radio range. At least two other track-side radio devices are located in each direction along the track within the radio range of each track-side radio device. The track-side radio devices transfer received data to the closest and to the second closest track-side radio device in at least one direction along the track.
