Abstract
It is necessary to minimize the costs needed to establish a physical distribution tracking system in order to maximally reduce the physical distribution costs leading to the increase in product costs when establishing the physical distribution tracking system for confirming container information in real time including information on a position and sealing state of a container. According to the present invention for achieving the aforementioned object, a system for sending container information including information on a position and sealing state of a container comprises (1) an electronic seal device which is provided to the container and includes a radio frequency communication module, (2) a container information transceiver which is disposed to the container, includes a radio frequency communication module, and receives the information on the sealing state of the container from the electronic seal device through the radio frequency communication module, (3) a relay which is arranged in a container yard where containers are collected or on a transportation means that carries the containers, and includes a radio frequency communication module capable of communicating with the container information transceiver and a satellite communication module capable of performing a satellite communication, and (4) a positional information acquisition means which is mounted to at least one of the container information transceiver and the relay and can acquire the positional information of the container.
