The invention discloses a real-time monitoring device for carrier state based on a radio communication and sensor technology, comprising a carrier with an electronic lock, a group of state sensors, amagnetic switching sensor, a signal processing module, an alarm, a short-distance wireless receiving-sending module, a positioning module, a data packet enciphering module and a communication module.The real-time monitoring device comprehensively uses GPS, GSM/GPRS/CDMA, GIS technologies, as well as a radio communication technology and a network technology to realize the functions such as state monitoring, use authorization setting, super-distance alarming/object-searching and the like on the carrier device, and can provide position information and a plurality of state information of the carrier device in real time. Signals can be sent out to the supercargo and a monitoring center when the carrier is opened illegally and the distance between the carrier and supercargo is exceeded and thestate of the carrier is abnormal, so that the management and use of the carrier device in fixed placing, escorting, moving and hand over process are more in line with safety specification.
