Most important question first: Does your script do what it is intended for? If not, post what goes wrong. If yes, here's some comments on it:

- do you really need to run it continuously, i.e. will any of the files AAA*/BBB*/CCC* be recreated periodically?
YES, customer will upload filename with AAA_%% or BBB_%%...
- while [ 1 ] works (creating an infinite loop) as would while [ 0 ]. Is that what you intended to do?
YES, I want run this as Services
- you want a download as well as an upload. In the same script? Switchable? File names changing?
Can split in 2 script
- you want "specified filenames" to be down-/uploaded. This can be easily done as lines in "here documents" are expanded by the shell. Any idea on how to supply the filenames?
It is random filename, only know the prefix name
- adding comments is good behaviour in programming, but try to be more illustrative, don't state the obvious.

After 8hours research, I've this auto download script:
Code:
#!/bin/bash

Logfile="ftp_log.log"
Processed_Logfile="ftp_log.processed"
Script_Logfile="ftp_log.script"
Directory="test"
Sleep=300

# -----------------------------------------------------
# Function get and remove file from server

getdelete() {
sftp -o IdentityFile=$Server <<-EOF  >$Processed_Logfile 2>&1
cd $Directory
lcd $2
get $1
echo $(date '+%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S') "     downloaded     " $1
rm $1
echo $(date '+%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S') "     deleted        " $1
!
EOF
}

# -----------------------------------------------------
# Loop job
# -----------------------------------------------------
while [ 1 ]
do
# -----------------------------------------------------
# Connect remote server get the directory list
# Save directory list in ftp_log.temp
# -----------------------------------------------------
sftp -o IdentityFile=$Server <<-EOF >$Logfile 2>&1
cd $Directory
ls -1
!
EOF
# -----------------------------------------------------
# Process line from list

while read p; do

SFTP-SERVER(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    SFTP-SERVER(8)

NAME
sftp-server -- SFTP server subsystem SYNOPSIS
sftp-server [-ehR] [-f log_facility] [-l log_level] [-u umask] DESCRIPTION
sftp-server is a program that speaks the server side of SFTP protocol to stdout and expects client requests from stdin. sftp-server is not intended to be called directly, but from sshd(8) using the Subsystem option. Command-line flags to sftp-server should be specified in the Subsystem declaration. See sshd_config(5) for more information. Valid options are: -e Causes sftp-server to print logging information to stderr instead of syslog for debugging. -f log_facility Specifies the facility code that is used when logging messages from sftp-server. The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH, LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7. The default is AUTH. -h Displays sftp-server usage information. -l log_level Specifies which messages will be logged by sftp-server. The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1, DEBUG2, and DEBUG3. INFO and VERBOSE log transactions that sftp-server performs on behalf of the client. DEBUG and DEBUG1 are equivalent. DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of debugging output. The default is ERROR. -R Places this instance of sftp-server into a read-only mode. Attempts to open files for writing, as well as other operations that change the state of the filesystem, will be denied. -u umask Sets an explicit umask(2) to be applied to newly-created files and directories, instead of the user's default mask. For logging to work, sftp-server must be able to access /dev/log. Use of sftp-server in a chroot configuration therefore requires that syslogd(8) establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory. SEE ALSO
