A Container Security Device (CSD) which is different existing RFID Tag strengthens the physical security as mounted inside the container and the information security as encrypts doubly a data. CSD must use the resources efficiently in order to operate with the battery. Therefore, it needs low-power mechanism which repeats the sleep period and channel scan period. However, by adjusting these periods, the trade-off occurs between energy efficiency and network connectivity. In this paper, we implement low-power CSD and resolve this problem by adjusting beacon period and channel scan time. As a result, We guarantee the network connectivity 95% or more and maximum life up to 16 days using common AA batteries.
