Abstract
A container security device (CSD) monitors intrusions through the cargo door; it is a reduced function device that uses IEEE 802.15.4 with a beacon mode. However, in the beacon mode, the CSD consumes too much battery power in periodical idle listening and sensing trials. Moreover, the CSD cannot send the message to the CSD reader actively, and it makes big latency problem. Therefore, we propose a low-power CSD to reduce the unnecessary power consumption. The proposed CSD follows the requirements of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and reduces battery consumption through a power-efficient hardware design, a night-watch mechanism for low-power operation and low-power sensing to reduce unnecessary monitoring. And the CSD sends alert message to the CSD reader. Simulation results show that our CSD reduces battery consumption by over 70% through the night-watch mechanism and by approximately 80% through the low-power sensing. And the CSD can send the alert message to the remote CSD reader by over 94%.
