Abstract: An object is to provide a transportation robot control system for a warehouse system and a control method that can stably control a large number of robots by wireless communication.
A transportation robot control system 3 controls transportation robots 30 in a warehouse system 1. The transportation robot control system 3 includes: a central wireless communication unit 200 configured to be able to wirelessly communicate with the transportation robots 30 in a specific region of the warehouse system 1; an individual wireless communication unit 210 configured to be able to wirelessly communicate with the transportation robots 30; and individual control units 220 that respectively control the movements of the transportation robots 30. The individual wireless communication unit 210 includes information reading units 211 that are respectively provided in the transportation robots 30 and a plurality of information holding units 212 that are arranged in a rack 2. Each of the information holding units 212 holds position information indicating a position in the rack 2, at the position, the information holding unit 212 is arranged.
