Patent attributes
A signal transmission method and a terminal, where a first terminal sets first information indicating a terminal type of the first terminal, and sends a signal including, the first information to a second terminal such that the second terminal identifies the terminal type of the first terminal based on the first information. The first information is set, and the signal including the first information is sent to the second terminal such that the second terminal identifies the terminal type of the first terminal based on the first information and processes the processed signal based on the terminal type of the first terminal to prevent, by distinguishing types of terminals, signal interference from being caused between different terminals.
