1. A Train Autonomous Circumambulate System (TACS) system supporting a fallback train control mode and a manual fault handling mode, the TACS system comprising:
a central train supervision device;
a station train dispatching device;
a wayside resource management unit RMU;
a wayside target controller;
a data communication system DCS; and
an on-board controller,
wherein the system supports mixed running operation of a main mode train and a degraded mode train, wherein the main mode train is a train operating in a main mode and the degraded mode train is a train operating in a degraded mode, wherein the main mode is a TACS mode, and the degraded mode comprises a fallback mode and a device cut-off mode;
the central train supervision device is configured to manage a full-line train plan to achieve train number tracking of the main mode train and the degraded mode train;
the station train dispatching device is configured to manage a degraded mode train plan and automatic degraded mode train route setting, to provide a manual operation interface for a route or a section, and to provide a section occupancy status to the central train supervision device;
the wayside resource management unit RMU is configured to manage the allocation and recovery of operation resources of the main mode train, to achieve the route management and manual fault handling of the degraded mode train, and to control a wayside device by means of the wayside target controller;
the on-board controller is configured to perform train operation control; and
the wayside target controller is configured to acquire a status of the wayside device while directly controlling the wayside device.
