Abstract A signal transmission method is provided, which may be implemented by a position indicator. The signal transmission method includes a step of dividing first information, which is represented in a digital signal of a first defined number of bits, into a plurality of information parts respectively represented in digital signals of a second defined number of bits smaller than the first defined number of bits. The signal transmission method includes a step of transmitting, from the position indicator to a position detecting device, the information parts, and distinguishing information usable for distinguishing the information parts from each other, wherein each of the information parts is transmitted with second information different from the first information.
