To provide an optical beacon capable of performing proper communication control whether a communicating party is a sophisticated on-board device or a conventional on-board device.SOLUTION: An optical beacon in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention wirelessly communicates with an on-board device of a traveling vehicle using an optical signal. The optical beacon includes: a light receiving unit capable of performing light-electricity conversion at two transmission speeds of high and lower speeds; a light transmission unit capable of performing electricity-light conversion at a predetermined transmission speed; a light emission control unit that suspends light emission of downlink light with establishment of a suspension condition as a trigger, and resumes the light emission of downlink light with establishment of a resumption condition as a trigger; and a communication control unit that performs communication control for a conventional on-board device that transmits a downstream frame, which contains lane notification information for the conventional on-board device, after continuing transmission of the downstream frame, which is provided prior to switching to a downlink, over a predetermined duration in the event that a low-rate frame of the conventional on-board device incompatible with high-speed uplink transmission is received.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8

    【課題】 通信相手が高度化車載機及び従来車載機のいずれであっても、適切な通信制御を実行できる光ビーコンを提供する。【解決手段】 本発明の一態様に係る光ビーコンは、走行中の車両の車載機と光信号による無線通信を行う光ビーコンであって、高低2種類の伝送速度での光電気変換が可能な光受信部と、所定の伝送速度での電気光変換が可能な光送信部と、停止条件の成立を契機としてダウンリンク光の発光を停止させ、再開条件の成立を契機としてダウンリンク光の発光を再開させる発光制御部と、高速アップリンク送信に非対応の従来車載機の低速フレームを受信した場合に、ダウンリンク切り替え前の下りフレームの送信を所定の継続期間だけ継続してから、前記従来車載機のための車線通知情報を含む下りフレームを送信する、従来車載機用の通信制御を実行する通信制御部と、を備える。【選択図】 図8
